Each of Domini’s stock funds is actively managed
according to an innovative strategy that combines the strengths of Domini
Social Investments and Wellington Management. Domini is responsible for the
development and application of the Funds’ social and environmental
standards. Subject to these standards, Wellington Management is responsible
for each Fund’s financial standards, and for portfolio construction.
Two unique investment vehicles invest in community
economic development:
Our shareholders invest with us for a variety of
reasons, ranging from meeting important financial goals such as retirement
or savings for college to building personal wealth, but one thing they all
share in common is an understanding of the importance of their investment
decisions.
At Domini Social Investments, we are dedicated to making
your investment decisions count — for your personal financial benefit, as
well as for your broader hopes for a healthier environment and a more just
and humane economy. This website contains extensive information on how we choose our holdings and how we use
our investments to encourage a higher level of corporate responsibility and to
help rebuild
communities in need.
Thank you for your interest in Domini Social Investments
and socially responsible investing. We invite you to explore our website
and hope that it offers you a clear understanding of what we do, and why we
do it. The website offers you the resources you need to learn more
about mutual fund investing and to open an account.
We hope to have an opportunity to help you meet your
financial goals. If you don't find what you're looking for on our website,
please send
us an email — your feedback is always welcome.

The Domini Funds are not insured and are subject to
market risks. Investment return, principal value, and yield will fluctuate so
that an investor’s shares when redeemed may be worth more or less than their
original cost. You may lose money.
The Domini Social Bond Fund is not insured and is
subject to market risks, including interest rate and credit risks. During
periods of rising interest rates, bond funds can lose value. The Domini Social
Bond Fund currently holds a large percentage of its portfolio in
mortgage-backed securities. During periods of falling interest rates,
mortgage-backed securities may prepay the principal due, which may lower the
Fund’s return by causing it to reinvest at lower interest rates. Some of the
Domini Social Bond Fund's community development investments may be unrated and
carry greater credit risks than its other investments.
Investing internationally involves special risks,
such as currency fluctuations, social and economic instability, differing
securities regulations and accounting standards, limited public information,
possible changes in taxation, and periods of illiquidity.
A 2.00% redemption fee is charged on sales or exchanges
of shares made less than 30 days after settlement of purchase or acquisition
through exchange, with certain exceptions. See the prospectus for further
information.
Unlike a mutual fund, the rate of return for the
Domini Money Market Account is determined by ShoreBank and will vary from time
to time. The Domini Funds are not affiliated with any bank and are not insured
by the FDIC. This material must be preceded or accompanied by the Funds’
current prospectus. Please read it carefully before investing or sending money.
