Founded in 2006, the One8 Foundation aims to support and accelerate social impact in its priority grantmaking areas. The Foundation operates as a venture philanthropy working alongside partner grantee organizations to improve and scale while also incubating new ideas and scaling those with demonstrated outcomes. Our strategic grantmaking teams come from premier consulting firms, giving us the expertise to provide strategy support to our most important grantees. We believe deeply in the importance of high-quality implementation and sweat the small stuff alongside our grantees in pursuit of measurable outcomes. The Foundation’s priority grantmaking areas are Education and Jewish Continuity and Community, each with a dedicated staff team. The One8 Foundation also funds direct community support to assist children and families in need and help them improve their own lives. The organizations that One8 believes are most promising have game-changing ideas, excellent leaders, high-fidelity implementation, measurable impact, and sustainable approaches. The One8 Foundation is committed to identifying and providing meaningful support to a select set of nonprofits that achieve results and have the greatest potential to create large scale, sustained change. The Foundation also supports leaders to start up innovative, potentially high impact new initiatives in our focus giving portfolios. The Foundation’s trustees have high risk tolerance and are committed to impact.
