The Many Faces of Giving with SV2 

Silicon Valley was built by entrepreneurs and innovators known for turning ideas into results. SV2 draws on that tradition. Partners – who include singles and couples age 20-something to 60-plus – contribute their financial, intellectual and human capital to help nonprofits grow and thrive. In return, Partners learn from each other and through their hands-on experience working with nonprofits to tackle social issues and resource constraints.

“I can make a grant to a non-profit myself. But if I’m inspiring other people to contribute, I am able to expand the field of givers.”
