MOVING MILLIONS. BUILDING POWER.

Multiplier Arrow-1

Achieving Justice. realizing democracy. restoring the environment.

Progressive Multiplier works to shift the progressive movement towards scale, self-determination, and sustainability by creating a high-leverage investment opportunity for philanthropy to strengthen the independent financial position of movement groups. 

Building sustainable progressive power

Power belongs in the hands of the people, those who progressive nonprofits serve, advocate for, and organize with. Organized people coupled with organized money create power in a democracy. The Progressive Multiplier is part of a sea change in philanthropy, where the impact of it is not limited by the dollars that can be given out but multiplied by investing in financing models that enable nonprofits to scale and sustain their independent revenue. 

Why focus on independent revenue generation?

Our Research Finds:

Maximize Gifts-1

 

Progressive nonprofits tend to rely heavily on foundation funding, but are testing independent revenue generation techniques.

 

Out of Reach

 

Revenue generation funding to scale their successful tactics is practically non-existent.

 

Light Bulb 2

 

Successes aren't widely shared and adopted as standard, leaving money on the table for the progressive movement.

 

Boom and Bust

 

Nonprofits seek revenue mechanisms that help them generate (c)(4) funds to mitigate the boom and bust cycle.

 

 

These findings give us a blueprint for how to help build the revenue generation skill and structure needed for progressive nonprofits to scale for the future.

Progressive Multiplier has set a new bar for effective capacity building. We are not only in the process of launching a small-dollar donor program, but also have a deep understanding of how to align small dollar partners to our mission and what factors matter as we identify potential partners. We also feel excited about how the fundraising approach from progressive multiplier will help make our fundraising more directly aligned with our commitment to organizing.
