Creating a New Model for Environmental Philanthropy
Description
In this episode of the Sustainable Ambassador Podcast, we’re joined by Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet, who speaks about their recent work to create a new model for environmental philanthropy.
A bold new initiative for the organization, the Planet Impact Fund, introduces a new philanthropic tool that blends investment and grantmaking to amplify their impact.
Kate walks us through the fund’s origin, structure, and vision, and explains how this new model creates space for broader participation—from individuals to companies—while remaining rooted in their core belief in the power of philanthropy. We also discuss the mindset shift this required, how nonprofits might explore similar innovations, and what it means to build systems that move beyond incrementalism.
