It’s important to know that the solutions we're investing in are actually making a difference. We know that the only way to do this is to engage in strategic philanthropy – philanthropy guided by six key principles.
Scalable
We’re backing solutions that show the potential to go big. And we’re driving these solutions forward with social finance, government buy-in and advocacy.
Collaborative
Partnering is vital for effective philanthropy. Philanthropists need to pool resources toward a common goal, and we need to bring the best of the private and public sector together.
Smart risk-taking
By working with standout partners on the frontline, we are venturing to support breakthrough solutions with powerful outcomes for the communities affected.
Evidence-based outcomes
Through robust impact evaluations and research – often together with leading academic institutions – funding can get to where it needs to go for the best outcomes.
Investment-based approach
We hold out for the 5% of programs that have the right business model, evidence, partnerships and leadership to be successful – maximizing impactful results.
Sustainable
Solutions we support must help strengthen local entities and infrastructure, while making sustainable changes to policy and practice. They need a clearly defined exit strategy.
