Tipping Point Fights Poverty in the Bay Area
Tipping Point Fights Poverty in the Bay Area
1.7 million people in the Bay Area don’t have the resources to meet their basic needs. We identify and invest in the most promising interventions by funding a portfolio of poverty-fighting organizations and implementing a series of focused initiatives. Learn more about our grantmaking philosophy.
We look for opportunities to partner with the public sector to leverage its impact for the common good. In 2017, we pledged $100 million to reduce chronic homelessness in San Francisco. Learn more about our strategy.
In partnership with local companies, we’ve developed a corporate philanthropy playbook. Learn more about corporate social responsibility with Tipping Point.
We prototype ideas in partnership with San Francisco Bay Area non-profit organizations and the communities they serve in order to test new pathways out of poverty. Learn more about our R+D team, T Lab.
Our board covers 100% of operating costs, so every dollar donated goes where it’s needed most.
