Case studies
Projects we've funded
Real examples of how Foundation funding has enabled meaningful change.

The problem
Most funding sources don't apply
Grants are narrow and competitive. Bank loans require collateral most organizations don't have. Venture capital demands hypergrowth. If your project is mission-driven rather than profit-maximizing, the options are limited.
Foundation offers an alternative: grants, loans, and business plan support, accessed through a single application. Submit once and we help determine which path fits your project.
