Through partnerships and investments, we encourage people ready to play with the ideas in real life to get going and share what they learn along the way. We know that a great life is possible for everyone, and it is worth trying the ideas out there to make that possibility one we can all pursue.
We work collaboratively with our partners to develop proposals for consideration. We are not currently accepting or reviewing unsolicited proposals. Additionally, while innovating for the future, we will honor our existing commitments and continue strategic support for a limited number of local organizations that support community needs.

We embrace both the measurable and immeasurable aspects of human flourishing. While we will use validated tools to assess outcomes like life satisfaction, resilience, and community vitality when available, we recognize that real change often unfolds in ways that defy conventional metrics.
Our approach will balance the quantitative with qualitative insights, lived experiences, and emerging indicators of positive change—some we may develop ourselves.
We value the wisdom of the communities we serve and remain attuned to subtle signs of transformation that may precede measurable outcomes. We also value our lived experiences and will ensure that our work remains personal and opinionated rather than jargon-filled, cold, and emotionless.
We will not constrain our work to that which is easily counted, but we commit to understanding impact in all its complexity—from documented improvements in well-being to the intuitive sense that lives are changing for the better.
