The Timothy Plan

The Timothy Plan

The Timothy Plan is a mutual fund company that screens its investments for abortion, pornography, "anti-family" entertainment, "anti-family" policies, alcohol, tobacco, and gambling. It is part of a growing niche of investing called moral investing, which, similar to socially responsible investing attempts to impact culture with investment dollars.

Timothy Plan pointedly shuns investing in firms it claims are "destroying children and families." For instance, companies who recognize domestic partnerships--thus encouraging "non-married lifestyles"--are avoided.

According to a Financial Times article published in January, 2008--" [http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/017f3c6e-c243-11dc-8fba-0000779fd2ac.html Christian group top among US faith-based investors] "--Timothy Plan's "funds are heavily invested in energy stocks such as ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips and Marathon Oil, a big factor in their outperformance."
