Levine Impact Lab
The Levine Impact Lab powers equitable impact by investing in grassroots leaders and organizations, building their capacity to accelerate positive environmental and social change.
Operating through the spirit of collaboration, flexibility, and trust.
Our Mission
The Levine Impact Lab is dedicated to driving positive social and environmental change by empowering visionary nonprofits deeply embedded in their communities. We provide unrestricted grant funding, tailored coaching, and close engagement to support a journey towards impactful change.
The Lab combines expertise from the business and nonprofit sectors to radically amplify the value of giving. Working with both individuals and organizations, it creates new models for the nonprofit sector by fortifying a network of community-led organizations working towards environmental and social justice.
LIL’s Model
The Lab uses a unique set of pillars to create sustainable, long-term impacts:
Organizational Development and Individual Leadership
Cohorts attend an 18-month program that includes strategy, operations, and finance; coaching and leadership development.
Community Building
A series of in-person and virtual gatherings foster connections and a growing alumni network builds long-term relationships.
Multi-sector Networks
On-going connections between nonprofit, business and venture capitalist leaders create cross-sectoral learning and open doors to new partnership opportunities.
Financial Support
Annual unrestricted financial support to cohort organizations accelerates their ability to apply what they learn in the Lab and enables them to sustainably scale their impact.
