Philanthropy Advisory

About Philanthropy Advisory

I work with founders, families and private clients in making philanthropic decisions that are grounded, well governed and built to endure. For those who have built significant wealth and want their giving to matter, the challenge is rarely generosity. It is judgement. Knowing where to direct capital, how to structure it, and how to ensure it creates lasting impact requires experience across strategy, governance and the realities of the sector. That is what I provide. Working with a select number of clients at any one time, often at the point where giving becomes more consequential and the decisions more complex, I help translate personal values into clear, enduring approaches to giving. This includes designing and directing philanthropic strategy, advising on where and how funding is deployed, assessing organisations and opportunities, structuring long-term partnerships and significant capital investments, and advising on governance and effectiveness. I also work with non-profits in strengthening their positioning and readiness for significant philanthropic investment, bringing a perspective shaped by experience on both sides of the table. My approach is deeply contextual, discreet and relationship-led. It develops over time, as priorities become clearer and trust deepens. There is no template. Every story is different. And I believe every legacy deserves to be built on its own terms.
