THE SKOLL FOUNDATION
About this foundation
The Skoll Foundation catalyzes transformational social change by investing in, connecting, and celebrating social entrepreneurs and social innovators. It seeks organizations at an inflection point that can scale proven solutions, supports a global community of awardees, and highlights impact through the Skoll World Forum. The foundation’s grantmaking is centered on the Skoll Awards for Social Innovation and related community programs and events. The site emphasizes partnership, targeted investments, and convening rather than open grant solicitations.
Funding focus
