Mission
To increase philanthropic giving throughout Europe by:
- Supporting our members in their venture philanthropy activities.
- Promoting venture philanthropy throughout Europe.
Activities
The European Venture Philanthropy Association (EVPA) is a membership organisation aimed at organisations and individuals who are practising venture philanthropy, are interested in learning more about it or are becoming more actively involved with it. To achieve its mission, EVPA:
- Provides a forum within which European-based venture philanthropists can network, exchange ideas and debate best practice.
- Informs potential donors and others of the role and benefits of venture philanthropy and facilitating its development, with the aim of increasing knowledge and acceptance of the benefits of venture philanthropy in the charitable sector.
- Facilitates and promotes new venture philanthropic efforts.
- Seeks to increase the effectiveness of venture philanthropy through research, working groups and conferences.
For individual donors
The European Venture Philanthropy Directory, available free on EVPA's website, provides information on its members as well as other venture philanthropy resources. It also includes a venture philanthropy 'primer' and investment case studies.
If you want help to establish your own venture philanthropy operation, then EVPA is keen to support the evaluation and, if appropriate, the establishment of such operations. It has written material on processes for establishing such an operation, to supplement local professional advice. The EVPA can also provide introductions to help you get started.
