What We Do

Effective Philanthropy works with philanthropists and policy makers by

• Producing, independent "issue-based" reports and analysis on topics of interest to them, guiding them on where and how to fund and how best to structure programs and policy
  
  • The nature of the issue (who and how many people are affected)
  • Underlying causes
  • Types of effective and suitable interventions
  • Examples of organisations adopting effective intervention approaches
• Articulating an organisational mission and grant-making strategy
• Designing and setting up operational systems for grant-making
• Developing and piloting innovative programs
• Evaluating non-profit programs for effectiveness
• Working in collaboration with philanthropists and non-for-profit organisations on:
  • Organisational development including strategy, operations, structure, resourcing and financial sustainability
  • Board performance evaluation and development.

 Effective Philanthropy does not undertake fundraising work or broker funding between philanthropic and non-profit organisations
