Foundations & Philanthropy

Private, family, and corporate foundations, DAF sponsors, and arts funders, including the spend-down foundations moving fast because they're closing for good. Know who else has already committed before your board approves the grant, without ranking a single grantee.

To Route Resources (Capital, Partnerships, & Information) more Efficiently

By
1

Map the Network

  1. 990-PF grant lists and Schedule I regrants
  2. Candid and Foundation Directory records
  3. Board and officer overlap
  4. Spend-down timelines and remaining corpus
  5. Who else already committed
2

Find the Gaps

  1. Grantees funded thrice, gaps funded never
  2. Board approvals made blind
  3. Spend-downs closing with no successor
  4. Rapid-response funds landing on top of each other
  5. Sponsored projects no search returns
3

Close the Gaps

  1. Show the board the other commitments
  2. Route the grant to the uncovered
  3. Pair the spend-down with a successor
  4. Coordinate the region's bridge funds

Coordination Fails From:
  1. 1Siloed information — a foundation's pipeline is private until the 990 posts, two years late
  2. 2Complexity exceeds bandwidth — one program officer, a whole field
  3. 3Incentives reward fragmentation — funders differentiate rather than converge
  4. 4Trust doesn't scale — grants follow relationships, not coverage
  5. 5Self-oriented entities — each foundation optimizes its portfolio, not the field
