Climate Lead and NGOs
Climate Lead elevates mission-driven organizations to interested donors so together, we can achieve a bold impact. These organizations are characterized by:
High Impact
We work with organizations with diverse perspectives, proven track records of success, as well as robust strategies, objectives, and metrics for impact.
Effective Implementation
To ensure each organization can scale successfully, we work with organizations with strong leadership, conscientious stewardship, effective collaboration, and clear priorities for philanthropic resources.
How We Identify Solutions
Rather than advocate for any one theory of change, we center the expertise of our broad network of advisors to identify solutions in need of scaled funding. Above all, we prioritize matching donor interests with proven strategies for climate impact.
How We Amplify Solutions to Donors
We elevate credible solutions to interested donors by helping to clearly and compellingly communicate these organizations’ stories. We encourage flexible, multi-year funding and, once a gift is made, transition stewardship from Climate Lead to the NGO as quickly as possible.
