Applying our expertise to launch, grow, and support a philanthropic fund in the Middle East

Opportunity

A leading U.S. foundation was building relationships with philanthropists in the Middle East. A family in the region stepped forward with an interest in bringing together family and friends to give to issues important to them and to the foundation.
Our client needed support to launch and maintain a new philanthropic fund in the Middle East.

Approach

Developed the goals for the fund and identified other potential members.
Researched philanthropic vehicles in the Middle East and possibilities for how funding could flow from selected countries to projects in other geographies, including sub-Saharan Africa.
Established a giving vehicle via a donor-advised fund
Developed communications materials to explain the goals of the fund, how a donor could join, and where funding would go.
Created a customized fund report to inform donors about the fund’s collective impact and managed the translation of the report into Arabic.

Results

Helped our client create a $15 million fund with more than twenty donors in a new geography.
Supported ongoing learning and communications to engage donors, and the fund continues to attract new donors interested in granting in the area of global health.
