support a Department of Philanthropy in the President’s Cabinet
The Department of Philanthropy and Social Improvement would be the first-ever convening center at the level of the White House bringing philanthropists and nonprofits together to imagine, explore, and implement gigantic visions for social change. The big bold vision between philanthropies of all sizes and the nonprofit sector that translates philanthropy into exciting change. It will be an official recognition that we cannot create a country that works for everyone, with no one and nothing left out, without the street knowledge of the nonprofit sector and the entrepreneurial capital of philanthropy. The department will explore the most innovative and impactful solutions being brought to bear on social problems, from homelessness to suicide to illiteracy, disease, and more. It will connect those solutions to philanthropic funding. The goal will be large-scale proofs of concept that can be taken to the ultimate scale with federal funding.
The department will also unleash the imaginative potential of philanthropy and the more than $1.5 trillion locked up in philanthropic assets right now. It will explore how philanthropy can create structural change, making giving and compassion cornerstones of our civil society. It will coordinate massive ad campaigns – imagine a Super Bowl during which half of the ads are about generosity and the power of the American nonprofit t sector. Imagine a massive online iTunes for charity evaluation platform that can dramatically increase public confidence in the charitable sector and boost giving as a result. Imagine venture funds that can seed the best new ideas. Imagine massive consolidation through merger and acquisition incentives that give us one very large organization working on a social problem, instead of a thousand ineffectual small ones.
The Department of Philanthropy and Social Improvement is an idea whose time has come.
