About Mitch Stein

I am the Head of Strategy for Chariot - the payments company for Donor Advised Fund (DAF) giving Today, that means nonprofits can finally incorporate Donor Advised Fund gifts into all their fundraising flows with Chariot’s integrated DAF payment option. This also removes the headaches of missing DAF donors, tracking DAF gifts and effectively stewarding your highest-potential supporters In the future, that means all the ways charitable dollars reach nonprofit organizations could be radically improved 🤩 After a 7 year career as an Investment Banker at Goldman Sachs and being repeatedly told I was too “fun” or “creative” for investment banking, I decided to try being a startup founder around my biggest passion - bringing more high impact innovation to the nonprofit space After raising over $1M in pre-seed funding, growing to a team of 10, and helping of users, we ultimately made the tough decision of winding down the company at the end of 2022 I spent most of 2023 consulting with other founders in the social impact tech sector on their Strategy, Story & Sales. That’s how I got to know Chariot and ultimately joined the team to help make my biggest dreams for philanthropy a reality I always do my best to share learnings, aha moments and entertaining updates from my journey here on LinkedIn - feel free to follow along if you’re into start ups, social impact and good stories
