We avoid top-down models for the improvement of societies, but devote ourselves instead to an earnest search for fresh ideas that show unusual promise for significant impact.
We are willing to venture where others are reluctant to go; we remain patient in developing sustainable solutions; and we wish to convene diverse stakeholders to address common challenges. We seek out these ideas from both traditional and non-traditional sources, including academic research and conversations with grassroots organizers.
NoVo Foundation does not accept unsolicited proposals or requests for funding.
Instead, we invest in a set of well-defined strategic initiatives, with non-profit and funder-partners, in ways that work to accomplish goals towards a larger vision.
