Connecting & Collaborating on Funding

[Jan_DAlessandro]

I'm curious if Pledge 1% Members have interest in connecting with other member companies that are funding the same issue areas as you?  Have any thought of that as an approach to amplify your profit or equity pledges?

Interesting question, @Jan_DAlessandro .  Pledge 1% certainly has a lot of tools and resources to facilitate social impact programs, but I wonder if there is an opportunity to nurture collaborative efforts. 

You may be thinking more broadly, but your question makes me think of this post.  Given that we have members who are keen on nurturing local/regional efforts (here's looking at you  @Brandon_Bruce ), I could see where collaborative efforts could drive significant impact in that regard.  

I hope to hear input from others on this - where it may already be happening, or where there might be a drumbeat for it.

Absolutely! We've built our grant-making program to incentivize collaboration. Happy to connect with anyone working at the intersection of access, equity and entrepreneurship.
