Social Venture Partners International – Social Venture Partners (SVP) brings together worlds that typically do not overlap: grant making, volunteerism, nonprofit capacity building, and philanthropic education. Every SVP is a network of engaged philanthropists who believe that they can have a positive impact on their communities and who use innovative strategies to address complex social issues.

2010 Collaborator:

Texas Social Innovation Initiative – Texas has always been innovative and entrepreneurial. So it should be no surprise that the social sector in our state is launching a social inovation initiative in a “big” way.  A year long collaboration among OneStar Foundation , Root Cause and Dallas Social Venture Partners will culminate at the bigBANG! and serve as a spark for other similar efforts across Texas.  To learn more about this work, watch the webcast.
