About Transform Philanthropy
Transform Philanthropy empowers charities with a new understanding of today’s fastest growing giving vehicle, the donor-advised fund, and guides the formation of strategy and process to optimize revenue from this very important tool.
We also work with wealth management firms and their advisors to help them understand the opportunity that comes with incorporating philanthropy into their practices, assist with strategy, and the construction of a philanthropic playbook.
Finally, by working with their trusted advisors and favorite charities, Transform Philanthropy educates donors and clients as to the good ways and better ways to make an impact through the causes they support.
Sustainable Development Goal 17 Partnerships for the Goals
At Transform Philanthropy we feel strongly about the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. We encourage the charities, companies and donors we work with to think about their efforts in terms of the goals, and tie that work into the one, two or more SDGs they relate to, and to talk about it.
We feel an affinity with SDG 17 - Partnerships for the Goals, and we have broadened the specific characteristics of that goal to include promoting philanthropy, as we see it as a necessary ingredient to achieving any and all of the goals.
These goals must be achieved. We are far behind, and there is much work to be done, both exterior in the world, and interior, within ourselves. We encourage those working toward a better world to view their efforts through the lens of these goals.
