The Philanthropic Method Pt. 3 (Support Existing or Creating Impactful Solutions)


Listen Later

Addressing the needs around us with existing solutions can feel like a cop-out. There is something sexy around the process of creating something new and so that is often our default as we look to impact needs around us. This week, learn why it is often the opposite approach that truly creates impactful solutions.

The Characteristics of Impactful Philanthropy:

  1. A focus first on achieving social impact – i.e., a meaningful improvement in the lives of others (vs. other concerns such as maximizing the funder’s tax benefit or honoring a funder’s loved one)
  2. Leveraging the best available evidence in identifying problems and developing solutions
  3. Linking considerations of cost and impact to understand where the best ‘bang for buck’ lies
  4. Continuous learning to refine and improve so that you make a greater and greater difference
