Move quickly to launch new mission-driven projects
Our clients often come to us with time-sensitive opportunities to advance their philanthropy and are eager to begin work quickly. Other times they want to create vehicles to give alongside other funders or launch a new charitable program but don’t know where to start.
We can support short-term and long-term mission-driven programs, campaigns, and other philanthropic efforts. Leveraging the Phīla Venture Fund and other tools, we can work with clients immediately to accept and distribute charitable funds, create and pilot a giving strategy, and sunset a program or launch it into the social sector.
How We Can Help
- Provide fiscal sponsorship and oversight of new philanthropic initiatives
- Facilitate group learning and guide the design of collective giving platforms
- Set up and administer pooled donor funds to streamline collaborative giving operations
- Direct dollars to organizations that are often overlooked and underfunded
- Receive charitable funds and distribute them in line with your grantmaking strategy
Grants Management
We give our clients the option to “outsource” the administration of their giving. For donors who transfer charitable funds to Phīla Venture Fund, we can take on all grantmaking and program management responsibility, including due diligence, fund distribution, grantee communications, and reporting.
Program Stewardship
Securing permanent nonprofit status can be a costly and lengthy process, and the challenges are only getting worse. For small organizations or short-term campaigns, the difficulties can kill projects before they see the light of day. By providing fiscal sponsorship we can offer an alternative means to get your initiative off the ground.
Collaborative Giving
Philanthropic collaboration can take many forms, from donors who want to go on a shared learning journey to givers who want to pool funding or launch a giving circle. We help philanthropic individuals, families, and other entities customize platforms to accomplish their collective giving goals and can administer pooled funds once they are established.
Community Connections
We have extensive, hands-on experience and strong relationships in the nonprofit sector. Our staff is deeply connected to historically marginalized communities and brings a trust-based approach to building grantee relationships. We can support donors seeking to share their wealth and power by setting up and facilitating committees of diverse stakeholders who determine how individual grants are distributed.
