Advisory

Canopy Funders helps corporate grantmakers make faster, more strategic climate and environmental giving decisions that their companies can get behind.

We do our best work at the turning points, such as a strategy refresh, a new mandate, or a hard question from leadership, when the path forward needs to be both ambitious and defensible.

Funders Engage Us When

We partner with corporate grantmakers at pivotal moments, such as:

A new head of foundation wants to refresh the strategy, or is stepping into climate and environmental giving for the first time

A materiality assessment or sustainability target points towards climate giving, but the path forward isn’t clear

Senior leadership is questioning the role of climate or environmental giving

The grantmaking process needs to be more efficient; still rigorous and fair, but feasible for a lean team to run

  • "Amy didn't just give us advice; she rolled up her sleeves and helped to design and build critical program infrastructure such as our alignment check and evaluation rubrics. These tools have allowed us to be far more directive with our partners, ensuring clarity and efficiency for everyone involved."
