GENEROSITY MULTIPLIED
We believe the gifts God gives are intended to be invested, that we take action to use them for the good of all humanity. We are all called by Christ to serve each other with everything we have – to take smart risks, to innovate, and to multiply.
The vision of We Raise Foundation is people free from poverty, violence, and inequality and this is achieved through our three priority granting areas: education, workforce development, and criminal justice. We do this work because, simply put, we love people.
We employ a unique approach to nonprofit investing by coupling program funding with a variety of robust value-added services that empower our grantees to grow their solutions to tackle social problems on the scale at which they exist. As a result of these value-add services, every $1 that donors invest through We Raise multiplies into more than double the benefit to the organizations we support. This multiplying component of our work makes the impact of a We Raise grant even greater – and makes your gifts to us go even further in service to others.
Together, we do so much more than simply give money away; we invest. The human need and suffering in our communities demand strategic, sustainable, collaborative solutions that bring hope and lasting, positive, change.
Whether it’s talent, time, or treasure, at We Raise investments go further. Generosity is multiplied.
THE LEGACY INITIATIVE
For decades, We Raise Foundation has served as the agent of your generosity. Your gifts, applied through the We Raise process, have achieved significant impact on a host of issues in a multitude of communities. That has been the story we’ve written together. As we imagine the future of We Raise Foundation and the people we aim to serve after we are long removed from this earth, we must ask—who will tell our story?
We Raise will be your legacy—your story—of valuing emerging leaders, creating healthy communities, and properly stewarding resources. What you leave to others through We Raise Foundation—and the rippling impact of the work of our grantees—is part of your legacy.
Please join us as we launch The Legacy Initiative. Our goal: to raise $10 million in newly established planned gifts, significantly expanding and increasing We Raise’s investment portfolio and our ability to help create and sustain healthy communities.
