Frequently asked question Nº7

Question: Are there SVP's in other cities?

Answer:

Yes, engaged community members in other cities have chosen to adopt SVP's model. Each of these organizations operates independently in the formation of its local giving priorities and grant decisions. The SVP cities listed jointly adopted 10 core principles, but otherwise each SVP is very community-based and locally driven. Information about other SVP cities may be found at www.svpseattle.org/resources/resources_other_svps.htm. SDSVP enjoys the benefits of belonging to SVPI (Social Venture Partners International), where participating cities share their experiences.
