Investment Approach

We consider grantmaking to be an investment in Spartanburg County, SC that will over time contribute to improved health and wellness. Therefore, when making funding decisions, the Foundation asks itself the following three questions:

1. What is the result to be achieved if we make this investment?
2. What are the chances that the result will be achieved?
3. Is this a good investment considering cost relative to gain when we compare it to all other opportunities before us?

We seek to invest in organizations that are clear about what results they will achieve and how the results will be verified.
