A Cool New Way of Giving

Dan Rigby and Terri K. Wogan

Welcome to Social Venture Partners Arizona….

It is exciting to be part of the engaged philanthropy movement and we invite you to collaborate with us in a very unique and powerful way of giving. Our Partners use a venture capital approach and apply it to our philanthropic work with nonprofits. This means that we engage with the nonprofits we choose to invest in—not only with our dollars but with our time and business expertise.

Social Venture Partners is a powerful network. We learn together, grow together, invest in our community together—and have fun doing it.

We hope you will join us on our journey to really make a difference.

Dan Rigby, Board Chair and Founding Partner
Terri K. Wogan, Executive Director
