Investors
Lever for Change’s pilot is being funded by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and Lever for Change Board member Reid Hoffman.
Donor Partners
Lever for Change partners with donors to connect them with nonprofits and problem solvers they can be excited and confident about funding.
