At Root Change, we train and support pattern-breaking social projects that advance new ways of connecting people, organizing efforts and promoting open innovation. Through a rigorous screening process, we find social innovators and the next generation of leaders who bring solutions to persistent development challenges. We then invest in the best to turn small wins into large scale social impact.

We provide our Root Change social innovators with access to the full range of our educational programs so that they can grow their leadership teams and hone their strategies, and we connect them to a philanthropic investment community composed of government leaders, foundations, and individual donors who are willing to offer time, talent, relationships, and funding.
