If we are to lift our region's low-income families out of poverty, we must find a new way.Launched by a group of entrepreneurs, political and nonprofit veterans, the Lever Fund has a simple, powerful mission: · raise more poverty-fighting dollars;· engage entrepreneurs and others who are new to philanthropy;· invest in a smarter, data-driven way in high-performing nonprofits; and· deliver results.The Lever Fund is modeled after successful organizations such as the Robin Hood Foundation (New York City, NY), A Better Chicago (Chicago, IL), and Tipping Point (San Francisco, CA), all of which apply metrics, emphasize impact, and are committed to producing solid results.Join us to fight poverty right here.
