Mission: GNF is a catalyst for change on behalf of future generations. Issues that face us today are complex, difficult, and big. We deploy the best of private sector, NGOs, thought leaders, and resources to solve the greatest generational challenges of our time.
We envision a future where generations have access to the world’s best education, they have unlimited opportunities for success in a dynamic economy, and feel safe in a peaceful, stable world. We know that it will not be easy to drive change and we welcome that challenge. We put to work a venture philanthropy model to incubate, support, and grow ventures that are forward looking and tackle the root cause, even if that is also high risk.
The Gen Next Foundation is a partner organization of Gen Next, Inc. where Gen Next Members and partners in their network act as contributors, advisors, and gamechangers to our high impact, social ventures.

Gen Next Foundation has an exceptional and unique model that is tackling the most pressing issues the next generation is facing. This organization had a lot of expertise and courage in many subjects and issues other organizations aren't taking in or addressing. I love that GNF is focused on the big picture and long term impact and involves many major private sector players. This is the way to make a major difference!
One of a kind. There is no other foundation in the world seeking to conquer such major generational issues as national security, education, and economic growth. Proud to be a part.
