The Philanthropic Kete:<br />
More than Money: Using the Right Tools for the Job<br />
“More than money, philanthropy can be about integrating<br />
research, convening, working with local and central<br />
government, advocacy and exercising leadership on tough<br />
issues. Expanding philanthropy through co-funding<br />
arrangements and taking a seat at the policy-making<br />
table are all components of a successful strategy.”<br />
- PNZ Session Brief
More than Money = Money+
Beyond our cheque-books<br />
Quote from The Intelligent Funders Forum:<br />
“Funders from different sectors need to<br />
move beyond seeing each other as<br />
pots of money and begin to<br />
appreciate the other resources<br />
potential <strong>part</strong>ners may provide and<br />
the ways in which each can add value<br />
to the work of the other”
What a GREAT idea!!!
Or . . . . . . .
What is ‘More than Money’?<br />
Our working definition of Money+:<br />
“Ways that funders can help people or<br />
groups which do not involve direct<br />
provision of money to them.”
