Strategic Philanthropy is about creating efficiency of dollars and maximizing impact. Strategic philanthropy means applying philanthropic resources in innovative ways. One key is partnering with others, forming networks and collaboratives for greater impact and success, and using new models for social change and social investment. With Strategic philanthropy, donors no longer give and hope that things will be better. Donors and recipients partner to create social change.
