Our strategy

The Vulnerable Populations Portfolio identifies new pathways for improved health by recognizing the integral relationship between our health and where and how we live, work, learn and play.

We invest in solutions with real return on investment. Taking an entrepreneurial approach and using available resources, we help to create pragmatic and cost effective solutions that work to deliver real improvements in the immediate environment. While many programs possess the potential for scale, they all are born from an idea whose potential return on investment rests in its ability to change paradigms and create lasting value.

To maximize the impact of our work, we develop projects that redirect available resources and energies for better results, re-engineer existing institutional conditions, renew the vitality of local environments and organizations and re-imagine ways to navigate around the social obstacles to better health.
