*Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher.

The pool returns are based on the total returns of the underlying mutual funds in each pool, minus operating expenses of the Schwab Charitable Fund. Principal value and investment return will fluctuate with changes in market conditions, and an account in the pool may be worth more or less than the original amount contributed to the account. During the period, the pools’ holdings may have deviated from their target allocations, because of changing market conditions. The portfolio managers rebalance the pools’ holdings as needed to limit significant variances.
