Societal and environmental applications - Philanthropy Impact Magazine

In searching for a cause to support, people often want to know what will have the biggest impact. And at times it can feel like a competition between causes — all trying to convince you that supporting this cause will have the most impact. But what cause should you support to have the biggest impact? Is it ocean conservation? Mental health? Animal welfare?

The articles in this issue make convincing cases for supporting societal and environmental causes ranging from refugee education through to dragging anchors, and many more in between. The breadth of causes that need addressing can sometimes feel overwhelming.

In the latest edition of the Philanthropy Impact magazine, our partner Pippa Garland , wrote the editorial focusing on the issues that philanthropists and social impact investors are facing.
