Adam Fraser

Adam Fraser is the CEO of Terraset, a 501(c)(3) that pools tax-deductible donations from people, foundations, family offices, and donor advised funds, and makes strategic purchases of high-quality carbon removal from innovative projects and companies – both for immediate impact and to scale the carbon removal sector as a whole.

In 2025, building on Terraset’s experience moving millions of dollars to carbon removal purchases, he oversaw the launch of the first philanthropic revolving fund for CDR – multiplying the impact of donor capital as well as providing de-risked on-ramps for corporate buyers and new opportunities for recoverable grants and PRIs.

Prior to Terraset, Adam served as Chief Executive of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, a global nonprofit founded under the Patronage of Nelson Mandela after the role he saw sport play in rebuilding post-apartheid South Africa. As Chief Executive of the Foundation, Adam was responsible for a global portfolio of more than 300 grants and capacity-building investments, all focused on using the power of sport to end violence, discrimination and inequality.

He has worked as a journalist and writer, communications lead, and nonprofit brand and business development specialist.
