What:
Even the largest foundations can’t go it alone when addressing our most difficult social problems. The Social Innovation Fund (SIF) has been a catalyst in bringing together the funding community to partner with nonprofits and access federal matching dollars for evidence-based solutions. To help facilitate collaborative investment in high-impact SIF nonprofits and learning among foundations and SIF intermediaries, the Social Impact Exchange developed The SIF Registry. The SIF Registry is a Web-based platform that aggregates information on SIF subgrantees and intermediaries on a secure site, which is made available at no charge to participating grantmaking foundations. This webinar was an interactive panel discussion, moderated by Grantmakers for Children Youth & Families and Grantmakers In Health that provided the latest update on SIF and see a demonstration of the platform.
