Founders Pledge’s Post

In the final exit, founders have the opportunity to give back and make a difference. Creating a lasting legacy through philanthropy is about more than donating money; it's about lending your experience, insights, and influence to causes you care about. Whether you choose to establish a foundation, donate to charities, or get involved in community initiatives, your legacy is about the impact you make in the world. Thank you for joining us on this 9-week journey through the 8 exits every founder navigates.

Strategic philanthropy - focusing on family offices strategically deploying their capital for impact. This is what Kashif Shabir now works on and helps, as some of the foundations are as big, if not bigger than actual charities. As more and more high net worth individuals begin to focus on social impact, this model in the charity sector is only set to get stronger. Therefore utilising the knowledge, skills and experience of people like Kashif becomes crucial and indispensable.

Its been months since I've read Weh Yeoh 's book Redundant Charities, yet I still find my mind constantly wandering back to this topic. Weh argues that charities should always have an exit plan to make themselves redundant. But what if we made charities redundant in general? What if we built a society that naturally fostered social capital? What if it was a shared responsibility to create common good for society and not just a reliance on the social sector? What if we forged partnerships between different sectors and people to solve complex social problems by pooling resources and knowledge? Does the charity model do more harm than good when trying to create social change? #systemschange #redundantcharities #forpurpose #charity #socialchange

Organizations ask me... "Should we apply for grants? Try to use social media? Run a raffle? Go back to doing dinners now that we're not in COVID...." Look... There isn't a wrong way to get donations. But when it comes to your annual campaign.... Relying on something like a raffle to cover your budget isn’t the greatest strategy. A school approached us asking how we could help. What they didn’t realize is that they had everything they needed to raise over $100,000. When I said that to them, they didn’t believe me. They thought that raising $30,000 from their annual raffle was good enough. Why was I so confident? Because when you combine their students, alumni, parents, and staff, you get way over 100 people. So what? Each one of those people can be recruited as a fundraising ambassador and take on a personal goal. And that’s what happened. We coached them through the process, and they were able to recruit 84 ambassadors and raise $140,000. #fundraising #crowdfunding #nonprofit #nonprofitorganization #organization #donation #charity #causematch #jewish
