About The Goodnation Foundation
What We Do
The Goodnation Foundation sources and vets high-performing nonprofits in more than 35 cause areas, including hunger, homelessness, education, racial justice, LGBTQ+ and more.
Goodnation Philanthropy Advisors makes it easy for donors to find and fund which of these organizations reflect what matters deeply to them on the Goodnation Philanthropy Portal. In combination with the personal service of a Philanthropy Advisor, the Portal allows donors to create their personal giving portfolio, where they decide which and how many organizations to support and, based on their impact, whether to renew their gift to them in future years.
The Goodnation Foundation works closely with our nonprofit partners to gather these impact updates to be shared back to the donor.
