01
No Equity. Ever.
We take no equity from any project we fund. Grants are capital gifts, not investments. We have zero governance rights over any funded project.
02
Zero Operational Spend from Donations
Donations are processed via Zeffy. 100% of donor capital is reserved for grants and project support, not operational costs.
03
Published Outcomes
Funded projects are listed publicly in our portfolio when recipients consent. We report outcomes carefully and protect student privacy when needed.
04
Open Governance
Our internal decision criteria are documented and available upon request. We welcome scrutiny of our selection process.
