How gifts are managed

A disciplined approach, built for the long term.

For funds that aren’t needed immediately, Law Forward takes a thoughtful approach to managing financial resources, supporting both today’s needs and long-term sustainability. To protect and grow your contribution, we partner with eCIO and follow a disciplined set of core investment principles:

The partner behind the strategy

eCIO is an independent investment advisor that works exclusively with nonprofits, foundations, and endowments. As a fiduciary, eCIO is required to act in the organization’s best interest, bringing institutional-grade management, clear reporting, and low-cost access once reserved for much larger institutions.

Invested for the long term

Resources are invested with patience and a multi-year horizon, not traded frequently or moved in reaction to short-term market noise.

Broadly diversified

Holdings are spread across a wide mix of investments, reducing reliance on any single company, sector, or outcome.

Kept low-cost

Fees and expenses are held down deliberately, so more of every dollar stays invested and working toward the mission.

Risk managed carefully

Portfolios are built to avoid unnecessary volatility, so the organization can plan with confidence through changing markets.

Reviewed and adjusted

The portfolio is reviewed regularly and adjusted as the organization’s needs, goals, and circumstances evolve.

Lifetime Value of a Gift

A gift today is the seed for decades of impact.

Disciplined, long-term management means your generosity doesn’t stop working after this year’s programs. Move the slider to see how a single gift can keep funding the mission, year after year, while preserving its original value.
