LGT Venture Philanthropy (LGT VP) is an independent charitable foundation established in 2007. With teams in Switzerland, Sub-Saharan Africa, and India, the foundation strives to improve the quality of life of people facing disadvantages, contribute to healthy ecosystems, and build resilient, inclusive, and prosperous communities. It does this by strengthening the capabilities of locally rooted partner organisations that deliver effective, scalable solutions to systemic problems across the health, education, and environment sectors and that contribute directly to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The foundation provides flexible, multi-year core funding and builds long-term partnerships to catalyse collaboration and collective impact. In addition, the LGT Impact Fellowship matches experienced professionals with partner organisations providing them with strategic business expertise. Since 2007, LGT VP has supported 80 organisations, facilitating the matching of over 200 fellows and contributing to improving the lives of more than 17 million people.
