The organizations SVP partners with are tackling some of our society’s most entrenched problems – and they are ready to take their work to the next level.

​

They’ve recognized ways that their organizations could be stronger, and are working with SVP to make that happen. In any given year, SVP is engaged with 5 local nonprofits, providing two kinds of support:

​

Multi-Year, General Operating Support

We believe that change takes time, and that those closest to the work are best equipped to make important decisions. Our Investees can depend on 3 years of funding, and they are free to spend that money where they see fit. We ask them to report on results, not financials. 

​

Nonprofit Capacity Building

It’s not sexy, but things like sound financial systems, effective board governance, and up-to-date technology can make the difference between serving 200 and 500 kids in need. That’s why we strengthen organizations from the inside out – matching them with volunteer and paid consultants who can help amplify their impact.
