1. POWER OF THE PARTNERSHIP
SVP Partners’ donations are leveraged by pooling their
money together. Then the money is leveraged again
with Partner expertise and directed at carefully select-
ed agencies. Unlike most funders, we stay with our
Investees for several years giving them stable funding
and support.
“I wish more donors would approach
philanthropy this way. We need the
check, but more importantly we
need the partnerships.”
- Gayle Nave, Executive Director, Mi Escuelita
