Our mission is to strengthen health, education, and economic systems so they work for everyone, especially women, children, and marginalized communities, through bold, collaborative philanthropy that invests in proven solutions and supports local leaders.
A defining feature of Co-impact Philanthropic Funds Inc is the scale of its systems-oriented grantmaking: in 2024 it awarded $9,211,164 to New Venture Fund in Washington, DC, and in 2024 it gave $7,000,000 to One Acre Fund in Brooklyn, NY. Those large awards fit a broader pattern of backing organizations that work on health, education, and economic systems for women, children, and marginalized communities. The funder’s recent grants also show support for research, implementation, and advocacy groups that sit close to public systems, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge and Last Mile Health in Boston. Across the portfolio, Co-impact Philanthropic Funds Inc appears to favor collaborative intermediaries and organizations that can operate at scale, rather than many small awards. The legal and organizational frame is that of a public charity, and the foundation’s latest 990 year on file is 2025. Its grant activity is national in scope, with recipients concentrated in the United States and a smaller share in Kenya. The pattern points to a funder investing in proven solutions and the infrastructure needed to move them through institutions.
Health is a major theme in the portfolio. In 2024, Co-impact Philanthropic Funds Inc gave $1,800,000 to Last Mile Health in Boston and later awarded the same organization $1,000,000 in 2025. Education-related support also appears in the grants list: Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge received $6,923,291 in 2024 and $966,475 in 2025. For economic opportunity and systems research, the foundation gave $2,146,685 in 2025 to University of New Mexico Echo Institute in Albuquerque and $1,406,722 in 2024 to the University of New Mexico, both suggesting sustained investment in institutional capacity. Gender equality and women’s leadership are visible through support for The Global Fund for Women Inc in San Francisco, which received $1,000,000 in 2024. The recent grants also include organizations working on access to justice, such as the Clooney Foundation for Justice in New York.
Typical grants are sizable: the 25th percentile is $235,650, the median is $507,500, and the 75th percentile is $1,377,012. The recent list includes repeated awards to the same recipients across years, including One Acre Fund, New Venture Fund, Last Mile Health, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Planetread, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than isolated one-off gifts. Co-impact Philanthropic Funds Inc is a public charity and a regular DAF funder, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The available data does not show an application process, so the giving pattern is best understood through its institutional, multi-year grant relationships.

Grantmaking is national, with 98.3% of recipient organizations in the United States and one grant to Kenya. Washington, DC appears most often among recipients, followed by New York, California, and Massachusetts. Recent grants reached organizations in Washington, DC; Brooklyn, NY; Cambridge, MA; Boston, MA; Albuquerque, NM; San Francisco, CA; and La Jolla, CA. The sole non-US recipient in the country distribution is Kenya, reflecting a very small share of grants outside the United States.
The recent grants point to organizations working on health, education, economic opportunity, gender equality, women in leadership, systems change, and support ecosystems or capacity building. Examples in the list include health delivery, education and research institutions, and groups focused on justice and women’s rights.
Recurring relationships are visible in the recent grants list. One Acre Fund, New Venture Fund, Last Mile Health, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Planetread each received more than one grant across 2023–2025, indicating multi-year support rather than only one-off awards.
The grant-size distribution is relatively large. The 25th percentile is $235,650, the median is $507,500, and the 75th percentile is $1,377,012. Several recent awards are well above $1 million.
Grantmaking is national, but the recipient mix is concentrated in the United States. DC is the top state by grant count, and 21% of grants go to recipients in New York state. The recipient-country distribution also includes one grant to Kenya.
