Overview
The Growth Philanthropy Network runs an online platform oriented toward supporting evidence-based nonprofits. This platform, the Social Impact Exchange, has high-quality data but is unlikely to get much use unless it is linked to other platforms like GuideStar or private-sector entities like Schwab or Facebook. This grant would allow the Growth Philanthropy Network to determine how to best link with these other platforms.
