About Us

Philanthropy is a journey; we can be your guide. 

Purpose-Driven From the Start

Geneva Global was created to answer a simple but powerful question:

Why is it so difficult to channel philanthropic capital directly to high-impact local organizations around the world?

Nearly three decades later, we remain anchored to the belief that philanthropy is most effective when it supports community-centric efforts. Equally comfortable in far-flung rural classrooms as in the UN General Assembly—or connecting the two—our overriding goal is to help our clients identify where along the philanthropic spectrum they can achieve the greatest impact through their giving.

What Sets Us Apart:

Our Global Impact Ventures Family

In 2019, Geneva Global was acquired by Global Impact, setting in motion the creation of a comprehensive philanthropic support organization of class-leading brands operating under the Global Impact Ventures banner. Together, in our complementary practices, we engage with Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Europe. Collectively, we raise and influence billions of dollars in philanthropic giving.

Our Commitment to Justice and Equity

Geneva Global is dedicated to incorporating justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) values into its core decisions and actions: within our culture, across our teams, and in our client work and relationships. Learn more about how these JEDI principles shape our work and our culture.

Our Foundational Values

Geneva Global’s founding partners named their firm to reflect its key differentiators: a trustworthy, investment-minded (i.e., accountable, transparent, data-driven) approach to humanitarian work from a position of global neutrality.
