Venture philanthropy recognizes that a great program – one that teaches kids to read, helps lift people out of poverty, or improves health outcomes – is no stronger than the organization underpinning its delivery. It’s crucial to invest in the organization and its capacity.

You have to go beyond writing a check and take a long-term view of what it means to invest in solutions to global or local problems.
