Coefficient Giving

After more than a decade as Open Philanthropy, we’re becoming Coefficient Giving: a name that better reflects our role as a philanthropic funder and advisor working with many donors. In recent years, we have grown from working primarily with one philanthropic partner, Good Ventures, to supporting multiple major donors. We’ve launched multi-donor initiatives like the Lead Exposure Action Fund and the Abundance and Growth Fund and expanded our Partnerships function. We want to build on these successes in our next chapter, fulfilling our original vision to help many philanthropists achieve impact. Key updates include: A refreshed website, a new visual identity, and a structure that makes it easier for other donors to support our funds at scale. Our overall mission remains the same, as do our core values and commitment to finding the most cost-effective ways to help others.
