UNLEASHING PHILANTHROPY AT SCALE
We are facing unprecedented social and environmental challenges. And yet $1 trillion of Giving Pledge philanthropy sits unused.
Instead of demanding: “Why don’t Giving Pledge Philanthropists honor their commitment?”
We should be asking “Is there a reason large philanthropy isn’t being given at scale?”
Venture philanthropy has the ability to solve some of our most pressing social and environmental challenges; but only if we create a pathway for it to realize its full potential. At the Merton Philanthropy Institute we focus on solutions that can be achieved by investing large philanthropy alongside leading corporations, since these entities are capable of deploying very large capital quickly.
