We fund early-stage non-profits with the potential for positive, scalable impact that have not yet demonstrated the efficacy needed for growth funding or a sustainable model. Social entrepreneurs often face significant challenges, especially when their initiatives are still in the early stages.
Securing funding for innovative but untested ideas can be particularly daunting without extensive performance data to attract large-scale investors. We are a small family foundation guided by three brothers united in their commitment to fostering social entrepreneurship. Our mission is to discover, support, and mentor emerging nonprofit organizations and their leaders, providing the necessary backing to help them succeed.
Small Grants, Big Impact. Each year, we make first time grants, ranging from $25,000 to $100,000. When we find an organization that is making significant advances, we work with them to grow their programs, and get them ready for more significant funders who can support them through the growth phase.
