đź’š How Your Donor-Advised Fund Can Build Second Chances at Baker Industries

DAF Day — October 9 — is a moment to give with intention. If you have a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF), it’s one of the easiest, most impactful ways to support the causes you care about most. And at Baker Industries, it means investing directly in second chances.

Whether you’ve supported us before or are just learning about our work, your DAF can help someone take a meaningful step forward.


🛠️ What Your DAF Supports

Baker Industries is a nonprofit social enterprise that provides transitional employment to individuals who face significant barriers to the workforce — including returning citizens, adults with disabilities, people recovering from addiction, and individuals experiencing homelessness.

Your DAF grant supports:

  • Paid work opportunities in a trauma-informed, real-work environment

  • Job-readiness training that builds confidence, structure, and skillsets

  • Connections to fair-chance employers committed to equity and inclusion

  • Wraparound support that keeps participants on track toward long-term success

In 2024, we supported 191 participants, with 60 graduates moving on to permanent jobs at an average wage of $19/hour. And we’re just getting started.
