The European Venture Philanthropy Association (EVPA) is a network of venture philanthropy organizations that work to practice and promote high-engagement grant making and social investment in Europe. Venture philanthropy funds, foundations that give out grants, private equity firms, professional service firms, philanthropy advisors, and business schools are all part of the network. The association has more than 210 members from 29 countries. It has three main goals: to get more money and expertise into the Venture Philanthropy and Social Investment space, to make Venture Philanthropists and Social Investors more effective, and to work together to create a well-functioning ecosystem for social impact.
