The Lodestar Foundation is focused in its grantmaking and generally will consider funding only organizations, projects, and programs that further our mission, although we also choose to support special projects from time to time. Moreover, our grants are designed to leverage the Lodestar Foundation’s assets to the fullest extent possible. Not only do we try to maximize strategic impact by focusing on projects that support systemic changes in the way nonprofits conduct business, we often leverage our funds by establishing challenge and matching grant requirements which may be applicable to our grantees and their boards as well as third parties. We generally require our grantees to report to us periodically for at least two years after funding to let us know how the grant has impacted their work.
In addition to making direct grants, the Lodestar Foundation also engages in field-building activities to build knowledge and to educate others in the areas of encouraging philanthropy and fostering collaboration.
