The goals of social justice organizations and charitable foundations are parallel: how to use limited resources to make the most impact towards
positive social change. But as much as these worlds are inexorably linked, the way both entities approach their missions can seem light years apart. How do foundations decide how much money to give or how to evaluate the effectiveness of their grantmaking? How do they sort through the hundreds of requests for money to decide which projects they will fund?
