Venture Philanthropy Partners...

Is a philanthropic investment organization that
helps great leaders build strong, high-performing
nonprofit institutions.







In June 2000, Venture Philanthropy Partners (VPP)
was created. Co-founders—Raul Fernandez, Mark
Warner, and Mario Morino—recruited 26 other
technology and business leaders and several
foundations to join together and contribute more than
$30 million to capitalize VPP’s first investment fund.

The Morino Institute, led by Mario Morino, provided
separate funding to create, incubate, and build the
organization and its capacity. These 29 founding
investors united behind a bold vision to alter the status
quo for children in need of opportunity and, at the same
time, create a different, innovative approach to philanthropy.

Now, that's what you call investing in tomorrow!
