In June of 2000, Venture Philanthropy Partners opened it doors, spurred by the
efforts of three founders who asked themselves,
“Could the business world provide a different, innovative approach to social
change?”
In the years that followed, VPP quickly became a strategic hub for high-impact
investments through deep and sustained
partnerships with foundations, businesses, government agencies and school systems.
In April of 2020, VPP formed a strategic alliance with Raise DC to build an
investment organization capable of driving alignment among communities,
and nonprofit, business and regional leaders around systems change. VPP+Raise DC
committed
to call out and confront policies, practices and systems that contribute to racial
inequity.
Today, we recognize the need to do more, be bolder, and act
faster. Youth Invest Partners is a call to “dream big and do
big” to drive change that will build better futures for Greater
Washington youth today and in the days, months and years to come. Our new name and
brand reflects energy and focus as we collaborate, innovate
and transform.
