Our multiracial, intergenerational, cross-sector community of entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and partners is on a mission to expand access and opportunity in America.
New Profit Inc backs organizations positioned to grow, with repeated six- and seven-figure program-expansion grants across education, economic mobility, democracy, and youth mental health. Its recent awards show a clear preference for scale-up support: Braven Inc received $1,669,168 in 2024 and $1,666,668 in 2025, while Girl Trek Incorporated received $1,000,000 in 2025 and The Health Initiative received $1,000,000 in 2025. The foundation also uses larger multi-year vehicles for organizations moving beyond an early stage, alongside cohort-based Catalyze investments for social entrepreneurs and civic, mental health, and economic mobility work. The grantmaking pattern centers on restricted, project-specific support for program expansion, but it also includes unrestricted funding in named investment programs. New Profit Inc’s active portfolio spans education, postsecondary and career pathways, workforce development, justice-impacted communities, and democracy / civic engagement, with a particular emphasis on organizations that are ready to scale service delivery or geographic reach. Several grantees appear more than once across recent awards, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards. The foundation’s structure combines build-stage and follow-on investments with cohort-based support, creating a funding profile oriented toward organizational growth and implementation at scale.
In education-related work, New Profit Inc funded Braven Inc for program expansion, and it also backed Transcend Inc for the same purpose. That pairing points to an interest in organizations that can extend effective models rather than pilot new ones. For civic and democracy work, the foundation gave Generation Citizen a $375,000 program-expansion grant and later supported Future Caucus with another $375,000 award. Its Catalyze Civic Lab and broader democracy cohorts add a second route for nonpartisan organizations building civic trust and inclusive democracy. Economic mobility is another visible line of giving. Onegoal received both a $377,500 grant in 2024 and a $375,000 grant in 2025, both for program expansion, while Propel America also received a $375,000 grant. The Health Initiative’s $1,000,000 award adds a health-related angle to the foundation’s broader mobility strategy.

Typical grants cluster tightly around $100,000 to $250,000 at the lower end of the distribution, with a p25 of $100,000, a median of $100,000, and a p75 of $250,000. The recent grants list also shows a set of much larger operating-style investments, including $375,000 awards and seven-figure follow-on support. Recipients appear across multiple years: Braven Inc, Transcend Inc, Onegoal, Generation Citizen, The Center for Black Educator Development, and Surge Institute all recur in the recent-grants data. New Profit Inc is a regular funder, not a DAF or individual-giving vehicle, and several active programs are open to unsolicited submissions through the Discovery Form or Catalyze cohorts.
New Profit Inc gives nationally, and all recent grants in the dataset went to U.S. recipients. Washington, DC appears frequently among recipient cities, alongside Chicago, New York, Oakland, and Boston. DC also stands out as the top state by grant count, even though the foundation itself is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. Massachusetts recipients account for 5% of grants, with recent awards to organizations in Concord, Newton, and Boston.
The foundation funds organizations working in education, economic mobility, democracy / civic engagement, youth mental health, justice-impacted communities, postsecondary and career pathways, and workforce development. Active programs include Build Investments, Transform Investments, and several Catalyze cohorts focused on democracy, economic mobility, mental health, and justice-impacted communities.
The typical grant profile is centered at $100,000: p25 is $100,000, median is $100,000, and p75 is $250,000. The active Catalyze cohorts are generally in the $100,000 to $110,000 range, while Build Investments and Transform Investments are much larger vehicles.
Yes. The Discovery Form is a year-round general intake for New Profit funding, and several Catalyze cohorts accept unsolicited submissions. By contrast, Transform Investments and the ECSO Initiative are marked as not accepting unsolicited requests.
The grants data shows recurring relationships. Braven Inc, Transcend Inc, Onegoal, Generation Citizen, The Center for Black Educator Development, and Surge Institute each appear in more than one grant year, which suggests continuing support across cycles.
The top state by grant count is DC. Recent recipient cities also include Chicago, New York, Oakland, Boston, Concord, Newton, and Atlanta, and the recipient country distribution is entirely U.S.-based in the dataset.
