Contributing to Useful Research 

We participate in research initiatives that yield practical tools and important insights into issues that matter to our work.  This can be by contributing project funding, becoming involved through an advisory committee, and/or partnering in a collaborative initiative.  These initiatives complement and strengthen the work we do in granting, impact investing and advocacy.
