The Philanthropic Kete:<br />

More than Money: Using the Right Tools for the Job<br />

“More than money, philanthropy can be about integrating<br />

research, convening, working with local and central<br />

government, advocacy and exercising leadership on tough<br />

issues. Expanding philanthropy through co-funding<br />

arrangements and taking a seat at the policy-making<br />

table are all components of a successful strategy.”<br />

- PNZ Session Brief


More than Money = Money+


Beyond our cheque-books<br />

Quote from The Intelligent Funders Forum:<br />

“Funders from different sectors need to<br />

move beyond seeing each other as<br />

pots of money and begin to<br />

appreciate the other resources<br />

potential <strong>part</strong>ners may provide and<br />

the ways in which each can add value<br />

to the work of the other”


What a GREAT idea!!!


Or . . . . . . .


What is ‘More than Money’?<br />

Our working definition of Money+:<br />

“Ways that funders can help people or<br />

groups which do not involve direct<br />

provision of money to them.”
