Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Philanthropy, Private Operating Foundations
Programs: Giving circles fund - recognizing that affordability, knowledge and impact can be a barrier to entry for many people who want to give back, gcf provides resources and an innovative online platform that empowers philanthropists at any level to give collaboratively and amplify the impact of their giving. Staff time is used developing educational content that allows circle members to refine and grow their philanthropic strategy and engaging circle leaders to help them navigate the online platform and grow their circles. Building the academic field - in 2017, the foundation massively expanded its case library offerings - including accompanying teaching notes and activity guides. Additionally, time is spent co-hosting major conferences and events, as well as engaging with individuals to further the academic field and draw attention to the importance of philanthropy as an area of academic study.
