We are engaged with the family of a leading financial services company to inform and influence their giving. We have created giving roadmaps for each member of rhe family customised to the causes they are passionate for. We have hosted a few workshop to build their perspective on philanthropy and presented opportunities for impactful giving. Simultaneously we are also supporting them organise and structure their philanthropy purpose in a thoughtful institution.
Grassroots to Grand Vision: Building a Purpose-Driven Philanthropic Journey
We are helping the business leader of a leading pharmaceutical company by building his perspective on the causes of his interest. Towards this we have held workshops with subject matter experts and practitioners to present firsthand insights on the issues and effective solutions. For his immersive experience we have organised field visits in the remotest parts of the country to showcase interventions at the grassroots level by non-profit organisations. Subsequently, we have facilitated the thinking around his philanthropic purpose and institutionalising it.
Designing Change: Structuring a High-Impact Philanthropic Vision
We have worked with an eminent fashion house entrepreneur to help her organise and structure her philanthropy. We started with refining her perspective on the cause of interest. We then started to define her purpose in workshops that eventually led to defining the vision and mission and drawing her philanthropy’s theory of change. Following this we facilitated meetings with some leading non-profits that have designed and implemented successful programs addressing the cause. These interactions informed the design of the philanthropic interventions, which are underway at breakneck speed.
Illuminating Impact: A Focused Approach to Family Philanthropy
We partnered with the promoter of India's leading electrical solutions company to shape a focused, impactful approach to their philanthropy. Through custom workshops, we explored their values, connected them with sector experts, and identified causes and non-profits aligned with their purpose. By facilitating direct conversations with these organizations and setting a thoughtful fund allocation framework, we helped the family make informed, strategic choices. This collaboration illustrates our commitment to guiding philanthropists in creating meaningful, sustainable impact.
Strategic Alignment: Connecting Philanthropy with High-Impact Partners
We partnered with a leader of India's leading adhesive manufacturing company for his philanthropy oriented towards the cause of hearing impairment. We helped channel their giving to credible, high-impact organizations working on the cause. Focusing on their philanthropic vision, we identified and vetted non-profits whose missions aligned with their purpose, ensuring a strong strategic fit. By facilitating introductions and in-depth conversations with these organizations, we empowered the family to make informed decisions about where their support would drive the most meaningful change. This engagement highlights our role in connecting philanthropists with trusted partners to amplify their impact in specialized causes.
Leadership for Legacy: Building a Philanthropic Powerhouse
When a top real estate developer sought leadership for his philanthropy vehicle, we guided him from headhunter selection to final decision-making. After vetting and choosing the ideal headhunter, we crafted a specific job description, screened candidates, and led interviews to assess fit. Our support helped secure a leader whose expertise and vision aligned with his philanthropic mission, ready to drive meaningful impact.
Investing in Impact: Securing Strategic Leadership for Transformative Philanthropy
