The goals of the Collaborative Learning for Impact Philanthropy initiative are three-fold:
We do this in three ways: By engaging leaders, analyzing what we are learning, and sharing knowledge.
Since 2022, Panorama has spoken with hundreds of non-profit and philanthropic leaders about the impact of large unrestricted gifts. This page is dedicated to sharing the resources we have created based on what we’ve learned.
Our hope is that this initiative inspires and educates leaders from the philanthropic and social sectors on how to dream big and identify pathways to accelerate the pace of social change, in order to have a more profound impact on the most pressing issues facing people and the planet.
If your organization has received a large, unrestricted gift and you would like to join a future peer learning community, let us know!
MacKenzie Scott’s incredible $14b+ in donations since July 2020 are at the forefront of what's been called "impact philanthropy," an approach that focuses on achieving social impact, scaling up effective solutions, and fostering sustainability. These gifts are enabling what was already impactful work in the social sector to turbocharge over two dozen issue areas. The volume, speed, and breadth of Scott’s gifts demonstrates the power of philanthropy to transform.
The unprecedented scale of unrestricted funding raises a number of questions about how best to turn these investments into impact. These organizations are now finding themselves with the exciting challenge of figuring out how to spend this money strategically, plan for the future, scale their operations efficiently, maximize this opportunity, and grow their impact.
