Nonprofit organizations use returns generated by hedge funds to deliver during mission-critical giving season

The holiday giving season is one of the most critical funding times of the year for nonprofits, foundations, and charitable organizations across the United States. These organizations use the returns generated by their investments in hedge funds to support their communities through charitable events like food drives, while also sustaining their everyday operations.

Prominent nonprofit organizations nationwide invest over $545 billion in hedge funds to deliver returns that create meaningful change and have a positive impact on the communities they serve.

  • Illinois charitable organizations, such as McCormick Foundations, use the returns generated from the more than $25.6 billion invested in alternatives to support their important work in the Prairie State.
  • Foundations and nonprofits in Arizona, like the Helios Education Foundation, invest over $4.7 billion in hedge funds to support local communities.
  • Organizations like the Annie E. Casey Foundation in Maryland invest $17.4 billion in hedge funds to improve the lives of individuals across the state.
