Over the last eleven years, we’ve had the privilege at Building Impact to partner with incredible donors and other changemakers who are tackling our most complex challenges and building momentum to advance change; we’ve co-designed innovative grantmaking processes, facilitated coalition-building efforts to advance policy objectives, and developed new programs with donors to advance equity and opportunity for learners across the country. We’ve built up our own team with decades of experience in philanthropy advising, social innovation, advocacy, and more, to support this work for the long haul. 

To better align to who we are and what we do, we realized that it was the right time to revamp our website, look, and even our name. We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new name, Building Impact Partners, and our new website and url: BuildingImpactPartners.com*. 

Our new name, Building Impact Partners, reflects the most important throughline across all we do: we roll up our sleeves to partner with changemakers across the philanthropic sector, working hand-in-hand to deliver bold solutions to big challenges. Our new website creates a more user-friendly interface that makes it easier to learn about our approach to systems change and explore our emerging ideas on how to advance positive innovations in and through the field of philanthropy. 

While we may be adding a word to our name and updating our look, the essence of Building Impact and the work we do remains the same: we are dedicated to work as your partner, hand-in-hand, to implement and deliver bold solutions to big, complex challenges.
