Spotlight Feature: Joshua Chadajo / JEC Philanthropy

By Steve Lear

Did you ever wish you could discuss your charitable giving with a trusted partner? 

Let me introduce you to Joshua Chadajo. Josh provides personalized philanthropic guidance and support to high-net-worth individuals and families through his advisory firm, JEC Philanthropy. As founder and CEO, Josh established his firm to share both his passion for charitable giving and his wealth of experience with his clients. 

Joshua spent the last 25 years working at three different nonprofit organizations, holding executive positions in two of them, and serving on multiple nonprofit boards. He has extensive experience in fundraising, strategy, finance, operations, communication, and relationship-building. 

What he’s enjoyed most during his thousands of conversations with and about donors is uncovering what motivates each individual to give, clarifying what each person hopes to accomplish with their support, and determining the best ways to achieve these goals.  

No matter how you want to give – from current assets, or through a foundation, donor-advised fund, or will — JEC Philanthropy offers a range of personalized services that appeal to seasoned donors as well as those just starting their generosity journeys. 

 Every quarter, I rely on Josh to help me make important financial giving decisions, which include setting a generosity budget, determining which organizations to give to, and how best to give — via check or from my donor-advised fund. His review and analysis of my charitable giving have made me more confident that the organizations I’m donating to are making a real impact in their areas of expertise. The accountability he provides has made my financial generosity much more meaningful.  

I encourage you to visit JEC’s website to learn more about how Josh can help you achieve your generosity goals and manage your philanthropic relationships. I’m certain that you will not only enjoy this process—you will discover that you are giving with more joy and purpose!
