Our Approach

Learning and moving toward regenerative practices.

Our Role in an Evolving Sector


Trust-based philanthropy, justice funding, impact investing. Each term represents movement in philanthropy — movement that is overdue in a sector that has focused too heavily on restrictions and particular needs and styles of funders that require time for nonprofit staff to tailor and track. This time takes nonprofit staff away from mission, away from their core work and reason for being.

The unrestricted funds provided by the Healy Foundation are a lifeline and catalyst to pursue our vision of an economy that supports the well-being of people, communities, ecosystems and the planet.
