Overview
The Aspen Institute’s Program on Philanthropy and Social Innovation (PSI) works to strengthen the capacity of civil society actors in the private and charitable sectors to solve hard problems together, practicing the habits of democratic decision making, while building social capital and citizen agency in the process. These attributes of a robust and healthy democracy are the antidotes to distrust and political dysfunction. They are essential to our democratic polity’s long-term capacity to adapt, solve, and self-govern. This grant will provide flexible support to the Program on Philanthropy and Social Innovation.
