Mission Statement
Root Cause, a nonprofit organization, advances enduring solutions to social and economic problems by supporting social innovators and educating social impact investors.
Description
The Social Innovation Forum seeks to build an alternative philanthropic marketplace. We encourage social impact investors to invest and reinvest in innovative, results-oriented organizations who are striving for efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability. Through an annual rigorous selection process, we choose Social Innovators with promising approaches to addressing specific social problems. We provide our Social Innovators with strategy consulting, executive coaching, and introductions to a Philanthropic Investment Community composed of government leaders, foundations, and individual donors who are willing to offer time, talent, relationships, and money.
