Investing In A Better World for Children

This is philanthropy as you’ve never seen it.  It is collaborative, inclusive and strategic.  It’s not just about writing a check or volunteering time.  It’s about transformation – of the nonprofit investees we work with, of the way our community addresses the critical issues that impact the lives of its children and ultimately, of ourselves.

DSVP launches promising nonprofits on a path to greater success.  Relationships with our nonprofit investees are typically multi-year engagements designed to help them build capacity and reach sustainability.  We look for organizations that are eager for change and poised for growth.  A core team of Partners work with each organization to identify needs and deploy appropriately-skilled DSVP Partners to address those needs.

As we move into our second decade, we are working to maximize our impact beyond our direct investees.  Initiatives include co-investment with like-minded funders, targeted engagement projects with nonprofits outside our investee family, and discussion forums on social innovation topics.

 

If you are ready to make an impact in our community, we welcome you to join us.
