Grant Programs

Page 25: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

uptake, team-building• Non-researcher on review committee to “kick the

knowledge uptake tires”

Page 26: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

New grant program – R3

users– Market analysis, focus group of potential users– Graphic design & digitizing intervention materials– Programming for use in HER– Develop prototype

IRS rules for private foundations

• Restrictions on self-dealing

• Must annually distribute 5% for charitable purposes

• Limit on their holdings in private businesses

• Investments must not jeopardize charitable purpose

• Expenditures must further charitable purpose

Page 33: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

“Should a private foundation be more than a private investment company that uses some of its excess cash flow for charitable purposes?” Luther Ragin, F.B. Heron Foundation

Page 34: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

Mission Related Investing – the 95%

• Most foundations invest in fund of funds• Questions regarding MRIs (esp. for single-fund

investments)– How does the investment align with mission? – Structure of investment and level of risk?– What due diligence is needed to evaluate?– What benchmarks are used to monitor?

• Easier for you; harder for us

Page 35: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

Program Related Investing – the 5%

• Provides grant with returns• Purpose of investment must advance charitable

mission• Investment return cannot be primary purpose• Same questions as for MRIs• Easier (and more advantageous) for us; probably

harder for you

Page 36: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

Considerations for both MRIs and PRIs

• How does investment further the mission?• Is it an investment for income (95%) or a program

(5%)?• Jeopardizing investment rule – risk may be too high

and/or return too small• Cost of monitoring the investment• How does it fit with the foundation’s overall assets

Page 37: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

Emerging models

• B corps - “Firms with benefits” The Economist 1/7/12• Social Impact Exchange – creating capital markets to fund

high-impact non-profit ventures• Social Impact Bonds – NYT Economix blog

http://nyti.ms/gxBwqQ• MX.com – “a marketplace for healthcare innovations”

Page 38: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

Can entrepreneurs help us?

• Significant capital & business expertise is required to launch evidence-based innovations

• Assist in the challenge of monetizing social, clinical innovations

• Partner in a more problem-solving philanthropic enterprise by promoting new paradigms, methods, rewards

Page 39: CVG - May 10 Presentation on Endowment and Foundation Venture Investing

www.cvg.org

Final thoughts

• Foundations have a social mission• Are challenged in getting their “products” sustainably

implemented• Have limited resources to spend on seed-capital

investing• If your innovation can help with a foundation’s social

mission, you may have a match
