Consulting Services
Global Philanthropy Consulting is committed to the improvement of the philanthropic impact of foundations, nonprofits, and individuals. The firms mission is to increase positive outcomes and find solutions for clients. Our firm advocates for a democratization of philanthropy and equal access to knowledge. Our vision is to see a society where income and address do not limit expectations or educational attainment. Our mission is to foster the creation of a just, equitable, and civil society in which all can share equally and fully in the public forum and available resources. Within the context of Global Philanthropy Consultings practice, we have a special interest in four key constituent areas: (1) the provision of advice to new philanthropists/pies and on the determination of their method of giving; (2) experiential grantmaking and creation of collaborative funds; (3) the program design, funding, and sustainability of programs for women and girls; and lastly, (4) meeting the technical assistance needs of nonprofits in poor, under-resourced, geographically-isolated, and ethnic minority communities. We offer a wide array of services as listed below.

Lorries dedicated and responsive guidance over the last five years has helped us develop a successful community-based grantmaking program. Laura Loescher Former Director of Programs Changemakers Foundation
