Social Venture Partners
BUILDING CAPACITY FOR A BETTER FUTURE
St. Louis Social Venture Partners provides financial and hands-on resources to build long-term sustainability for nonprofit organizations that provide educational programs for disadvantaged youth.
Just as a venture capitalist invests money and valuable expertise in building a new organization’s infrastructure, SVP Partners use their business skills, time and money toward improving the long-term sustainability of local nonprofits.
SINCE 2001
SVP has given more than $2.4 million in grants and in-kind support as well as over 26,000 hours of volunteer and staff time to 36 area nonprofits. View current list of nonprofits supported by St. Louis SVP or see a complete list of past SVP Investees.
In addition to building capacity in select nonprofits, SVP also educates partners on effective philanthropy. Education events feature local, national and international philanthropists and civic leaders.
