We’re heading into the giving season: a period of reflection for many, particularly in the world of philanthropy, exploring different ways to contribute resources - both financially and in the currency of time - to causes they feel they can create a real impact for.? ? There are some fascinating insights in Wealth Briefing about the priorities emerging from philanthropists, and a statistic on receiving tangible results stood out to me: ? “Around two-thirds expect to see some form of return on 25% or more of their philanthropic giving; 16% expect to see a return on half or more of their donations.” ? Whilst I can understand the wish for philanthropic contributions to have a measurable financial return for the cause, I would argue that those who are willing to make high-risk bets and?test unconventional out of the box ideas are the ones that will be able to shift the paradigm on the complex issues we look to resolve. ? Philanthropists have the freedom and ability to accept the consequences of setbacks and failure, learn from mistakes, improve their theory and try again.? ? It’s easy to get caught up in the financial return of contributions, but it’s also important to remember that the ability to take risks in philanthropy is a true superpower - and one that can genuinely change the world.? ? #Philanthropy #Philanthropist #MoonshotPhilanthropy https://lnkd.in/eYK7GfkV

No, no, no..... ??♀?. The best first step of an fledgling philanthropist is NOT 'to pick up a vehicle through which to give' ??. If they haven't figured out what their aspirations are, how are they going to make the right decision about which vehicle to use to reach those goals ??♀?. They need to sit, think, research, and think again. There are so many collaborative groups of foundations, or platforms they can use to find other funders, that they don't need to go out on their own. Whether it is using platforms like 360 GIVING or Giving is Great to tell you what other funders are doing or what charities are working on (or using the charity commission website to do same - albeit it is not so user friendly) or reaching out to groups like Impact100 (I'm a fan of Impact 100 London), Forward Global, Toniic, Co-Impact or The Funding Network... or many others... I'm a big fan of Founders Pledge and David Goldberg (and Lever for Change) and they are offering the same as the other groups I mentioned... cohorts of philanthropists trying to find their way... but this article is positioning things in an upside down way... ... choosing the vehicle to start with is like buying furniture for your new house... before you have even bought the house ??♀?. #philanthropy #philanthropists #donors #funders #grantmaking #grants
