Chaedrol Fund is the firm’s donor-advised fund for charitable giving funded through our pledge of 5% pretax profits. The fund focuses on 501(c)(3) helping organizations that focus on meeting DC residents’ basic needs for food, shelter, and healthcare. To date, the fund has donated to
- Loaves and Fishes, a midday feeding program serving volunteer-cooked meals from St. Stephen and the Incarnation Church in Northwest Washington on weekends and federal holidays when most other programs are closed
- Thrive DC, which provides weekday meals and other services from the same site
- Bread for the City, which provides food, clothing, medical care, and legal and social services to reduce the burden of poverty
