COMMUNITY-DRIVEN
Community solutions must be a
collaborative effort with the people we
seek to support, and ultimately be
owned by them
We view philanthropy as a powerful source for driving social innovations that lead to more resilient, healthier communities. It provides an opportunity for us to pioneer new ideas, generate new solutions, develop the next generation of leaders, strengthen civic and social organizations and build partnerships to solve complex, global problems. We apply three principles that we believe are fundamental to thoughtful and effective philanthropy:
Community solutions must be a
collaborative effort with the people we
seek to support, and ultimately be
owned by them
Measuring and evaluating our impacts
is a powerful tool that allows us to
continually learn and make critical
decisions
We understand that the long-term
success of programs depends on self-
reliance free of donor support
