Building the Future We All Want!

Propel Philanthropy is a network of 30-plus social impact support organizations (SISOs) — a title we've coined similar to "Philanthropy Support Organizations" but inclusive of diverse sectors performing various functions. Collectively, we are building a better future by increasing social assets far and wide — including charitable, human resource, and values-aligned social investment capital, nonprofit and philanthropic capacity, collaborations and partnerships, the scaling of innovations, and more. Propel Philanthropy is running our annual Collaborative Media Campaign to inspire funders to appreciate and fund SISOs. To move from half-throttle to full speed ahead, we must seriously examine ways to work with organizations that already have extensive reach and propel them significantly further.

What Some Social-Impact Support Organizations Have Achieved

Confluence Philanthropy was active in building the values-aligned social investment market that unlocked triple-digit billions of dollars. It also helped secure the Belonging Pledge; this involved people with a collective $1.89 trillion of assets under management committed to increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Nexus Global has helped members with a collective $750 billion of assets under management to achieve greater impact with their giving. In different capacities, Synergos, The Philanthropy Workshop, Generation Pledge, Exponent Philanthropy, NEID Global, and others have also achieved exceptional results. WINGS secured over 500 signatures from foundations pledging to take urgent action on climate change. The National Council of Nonprofits secured $50 billion from Congress in forgivable PPP loans for nonprofits during the COVID crisis.

Convening Peer-to-Peer Learning With Funders

One of Propel Philanthropy's mandates is to convene funder-to-funder explorations on how we can reach as far and wide as possible. We know that the more charitable capital we unlock, the more we will have to create a bigger, more inclusive, and equitable pie. The same principle holds true in many other ways, such as increasing values-aligned social investments and scaling innovations globally. We invite funders to register and participate in peer-to-peer dialogues on how we can work together with the bigger picture in mind.
