OUR OBJECTIVE LAAF operates as a philanthropic innovation lab using technology to globally scale open-source education innovations to help individuals change HOW they give. We create philanthropic resources and programs to advance the educational, individual and institutional fields of philanthropy and amplify their measurable social impact. OUR APPROACH Our founder, Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen, believes that everyone, regardless of age, background or experience, can be a strategic philanthropist by learning how to make the most of whatever it is they have to give. LAAF produces a unique portfolio of resources to meet givers' varying needs including all forms and sizes of gifts. LAAF resources equip diverse givers to increase their social impact by taking a more strategic, proactive and collaborative approach. PROBLEM Americans are generous givers but we are not giving to our fullest potential. Too many gifts are made without research to support them, resulting in untapped potential in how we give. OPPORTUNITY Regardless of why or what they give, philanthropists need new tools to help them learn how to make their giving matter more. Technology is democratizing not only philanthropy itself, but also access to knowledge and participation in creating measurable, social impact. STRATEGY By providing free, online access to diverse high-quality resources and programs, all givers can easily learn to make more strategic giving choices. SOLUTION LAAF is uniquely prepared and dedicated to providing free philanthropy resources to all types of givers through a variety of channels, with a future focus of using technology innovations to increase educational access and quality.
