The Phīla Philosophy


The premise of this consultancy is to steward authentic connections with the social sector to help donors be active participants in creating a more just and equitable world. We are experts in creating philanthropic strategies and giving programs that connect money to values, especially through the lenses of racial justice, social justice, and holistic philanthropic practices.

We empower our clients to be activists for the causes and issues they believe in by employing not just their treasure, but also their talent, time, and ties. We believe that pairing beliefs with action (volunteering, familial engagement, peer-learning, etc.) is the best way to create a philanthropic legacy.

To us, “giving back” is about linking passion with action. We are here to join you on your journey.

If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.”
