philosophy

Pioneering Innovative Giving Through Blended Finance and Venture Philanthropy

Over the years, Waterfield Advisors has been actively collaborating with Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (UHNIs) and their families to channel substantial capital into the social sector, either through grants or investments aimed at making a positive impact. Acknowledging our position as philanthropic advisors, we have taken the initiative to establish our own philanthropic foundation with the aim of directly contributing to creating meaningful change.

“We believe that the intersection of philanthropy and private capital holds the key to unlocking transformative change. At Waterfield Foundation, our innovative approach to grant-making, which combines grants with investments, is set to pave the way for collaborative solutions that can address global challenges at scale.”

An endeavour to support the causes you care about

The primary purpose of the Waterfield Foundation is to act as a platform for testing innovative philanthropic models, exploring new ways to create impact, and potentially leading to groundbreaking strategies that can be shared with the world.

Waterfield Foundation wants to change the way the world looks at philanthropic giving. We understand that private, commercially focused capital has a pivotal role in meeting the Sustainable Development Goals and that philanthropic capital has the potential to bring in private investors. We aim to use our understanding of the financial and social sectors to strategically move much-needed aid towards solving issues at scale.
