Because of the tangible, measurable and enduring benefits to society that flow from our model, SVA refers to the philanthropists who fund the work we do as ‘social investors’.
Many social investors want to do more than just give money; they want to contribute their expertise and skills, monitor the impact of their philanthropy and participate in the journey of making change happen.
This growing movement of individuals, private foundations and corporations have discovered a more deeply engaged way of giving – this is known as engaged philanthropy.
SVA is also supported by people who simply want their funding to make a real difference in the community but don’t know where to begin or do not have the time for meaningful research. We play a key role in linking philanthropists with ventures and initiatives that are properly researched, continually monitored and making a significant impact.
