hands - on

We don't just write checks; we roll up our sleeves and get involved. By experiencing an organization's work firsthand, we not only gain invaluable insights that inform our giving decisions, but we're able to step in and provide targeted support when unexpected opportunities or challenges emerge.

Streamlined Process

We eliminate bureaucratic hurdles by taking on the responsibility of vetting organizations ourselves. By streamlining the funding process, we enable our partners to focus on their mission-critical work rather than navigating intricate application procedures.

True Partnerships

At Carte Blanche, we're not just funders; we're advocates and connectors. We develop deep relationships with our partner organizations, identifying and supporting their additional needs as they arise. Beyond our direct funding, we advocate for our partners with other giving organizations, public donors, and businesses. We endeavor to facilitate beneficial relationships that non-profits might not have the time or resources to pursue on their own, creating a network of support that amplifies their impact and fosters a broader community around their vital work.
