The Philanthropy Workshop (TPW) is a global community of 350+ global philanthropists trained in the core principles and practices of strategic giving. We accelerate social impact by mobilizing a global network of strategic investors who are united by their commitment to unlock resources, engage in lifelong learning, and take innovative approaches to philanthropy. Rooted in over 25 years of practice, TPW is relentlessly focused on activating assets, accelerating impact, and igniting innovation. We are a dynamic, nimble, and collaborative organization of 14 staff across offices in London, New York, and San Francisco.

TPW values the attributes, characteristics, and perspectives that make each person unique. A core TPW value is that its staff, members, partners, operations, strategies, and investments advance equity within and beyond the organization. As strategic- and trust-based philanthropy leaders, we are intentional about practicing an organizational culture that is consistent with our values. Our culture embraces diversity, equity, and inclusion, including cross-cultural understanding, which in turn allows TPW and its partners to collectively and more effectively achieve impact. We work in a collaborative environment where perseverance, flexibility, humor, and an entrepreneurial spirit are encouraged and celebrated. Integrity, kindness, empathy, and respect are at the forefront of the way we treat each other, our partners, our members, and our supporters. Our internal and external activity centers around our core organizational values:

Collaboration
We work collaboratively within both the TPW community and the wider sector working towards social change in order to leverage greater impact.

Learning
We promote a culture of learning, rigor, curiosity, humility, and the ability to pivot and adapt nimbly in order to better address the most intractable issues of our time.

Impact-Driven
We hold positive, accelerated impact as the ultimate goal in all of our work.

Transparency
We ensure a spirit of open communication and clear accountability in the way we operate.

Challenge
We value challenge that helps each of us grow, learn and deliver greater impact. We welcome hard conversations, question assumptions, and work with one another to find solutions.

Equity
Recognizing that we live in systems built on inequality and injustice, we commit to unlocking resources for more just and equitable outcomes.
