CORE WORK
Social Venture Partners Seattle (SVP) is a network of individuals from diverse backgrounds who pool their expertise and resources to make a collective impact that far exceeds what any individual could achieve. This leveraged approach allows SVP to provide larger, and longer-term, grants to organizations in the areas of early childhood development, K-12 education, out of school time programs for youth, and the environment.
SVP Partners have the opportunity to work directly with nonprofits. This allows philanthropists and nonprofits to learn from each other and build capacity for positive community impact. SVP Partners make hands-on contributions to Investees through strategic volunteering, determining grant decisions through a committee process, and supporting the internal work of SVP through working groups.
Using this model, SVP supports a community of passionate and talented individuals who are dedicated to improving the lives of children and protecting our environment.
