Luminaries 2026 Impact Statement

Danita M. Harris, CAP, is the Founder and Executive Director of GUICE Foundation and CEO of GUICE Wealth Management — and she built both on a single conviction: that wealth management and philanthropy are not separate conversations. They are one. For more than 20 years, Harris has advised professional athletes, entertainers, and high-net-worth families on legacy planning, alternative assets, and strategic giving. What she found, consistently, was that the clients with the greatest capacity to give were the least well-served by a sector that treated philanthropy as a tax strategy rather than a legacy tool. GUICE Foundation is her structural answer to that gap — a "charity for charities" that provides the matchmaking, concierge execution, and portfolio-based giving architecture that transforms good intentions into lasting impact.
