Our vision is to live in a sustainable world of peace and prosperity for all.
The Skoll Foundation catalyzes transformational social change by investing in, connecting, and championing social entrepreneurs and other social innovators who together advance bold and equitable solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.
We identify people and organizations with innovations creating scalable positive impact. We invest at their inflection point towards scale, our bet that these social entrepreneurs have charted a path to fundamentally transform unjust systems.
Connect
Social Entrepreneurship is a team sport. We believe that change agents thrive in a well cultivated community of their peers. Scalable solutions to the world’s most pressing problems require innovative partnerships.
Celebrate
We believe a story well told can change the world. Through our Skoll Award for Social Entrepreneurship, we have supported 122 social entrepreneurs and 100 organizations on five continents. Their stories show the world what is possible.
Explore Our Work
We strive to work with social innovators closest to the challenges, to advance equity, and drive toward a sustainable world of peace and prosperity for all. Social innovators tackle interconnected problems and advance solutions from every angle—from disrupting unjust systems and movement building to improving policies and practices. We focus on problems and places that are ripe for change, with potential for major impact.
We partner with social entrepreneurs and other social innovators who have lived or learned experience in the challenges they are addressing. These organizations and leaders mobilize collective efforts to advance their vision and drive durable and lasting change.
