Partners

The Pisces Foundation believes in the power of partnership and collaboration. The most significant opportunity to accelerate progress on social issues lies in purposeful connection, shared priorities, and scaled, collective action. As a community, we are better together.

We encourage and facilitate networking amongst our grantees and diverse problem solvers, and we participate in formal and informal networks with our grantees and with other foundations to exchange information, share learning, and align for collaborative impact.

Since launching in 2013, we have awarded over 1,100 grants to over 350 organizations worldwide.
We are committed to our grantees and grant applicants:
We respect the knowledge and expertise of the organizations with which we interact.
We give realistic and timely feedback to prospective grantees about the likelihood that we will fund their work and where it might fit with our areas of focus.
When we solicit a proposal, we take the time to understand the needs of a prospective grantee and explain our goals, strategies, and our grant-making process.
We strive for efficiency in our interactions with prospective grantees about their proposal and budget by aiming to communicate feedback comprehensively.
We design grant reporting requirements so that they allow us and grantees to evaluate and learn.
We aim for strong, collaborative relationships with our grantees that help them succeed in their work.
If funding priorities or timelines change, we strive to give sufficient lead-time to adjust.
