Operationalizing Trust-Based Philanthropy

“It's our belief that these are the experts, the people that we're funding, they know exactly what they're doing . . . And it is our goal to figure out what we can do to fund them most quickly, most efficiently with as little red tape as possible. And essentially get out of the way and just let them do their thing and minimize the amount of time that they spend pushing papers around so that they can get back to the critical work that they're doing.”
