About Us
Serving local social impact organizations everywhere
Every day, social impact organizations
serve their communities with leadership,
nuanced expertise and compassion.
Their work restores people’s hope in the future.
These moments have much more significance than just being
heroic examples of local impact; these outcomes are key
in our shared progress to meet the Sustainable Development Goals.
Locally-led organizations are our most critical drivers of sustainable change.
Yet many of these organizations have limited access to resources
whether it be learning opportunities, peer support or funding.
What if we applied the reach and efficiency of technology to deliver
these critical resources to organizations where it matters most?
Philanthropy University is a free platform for social change
that puts practical courses and knowledge-sharing communities
just a click away.
HOW WE GOT HERE
Serving local social impact organizations everywhere.
Named from the word Philanthropos, meaning love of humanity,
PhilanthropyU was founded by the Al-Dabbagh Group in 2015.
Our premier capacity-building platform will join the suite of services
offered by OneValley, a global entrepreneurship and innovation platform
for individuals, startups, and corporations seeking
innovation and accelerated growth.
The merger combines the vision of both OneValley and Philanthropy U
a world in which entrepreneurs and civil society organizations have
the resources needed to innovate and solve the world's most
pressing problems.
OneValley's global innovation platform, which currently supports
individuals, startups, and corporations, will provide a thriving
innovation ecosystem that includes technology partners, content,
resources, programming, and a network of funding, mentoring,
and startup communities. This will consist of a completely re-imagined
capacity-building platform and a new platform to connect
social impact organizations with funders.
