The Possibility.

Communities are navigating generation-defining crises with strength and resilience. However, the challenges ahead are unrelenting. Over $230 billion sits in donor-advised funds, and $84 trillion will change hands over the next 20 years. The wealth to change the world is already here.

Now more than ever, philanthropy has a choice: continue investing the bare minimum required by law, or redefine giving for the common good and change the world.

FAQ.

Who is Sovereign Good?
icon

Sovereign Good is a collective of four practitioners who worked directly in philanthropy, corporate, and inside the systems philanthropy is trying to change. We partner with visionary philanthropists and families ready to move beyond intention -- into audacious, values-aligned investment in a more just, healthy, and prosperous world.

What is philanthropic advising?
icon

The work needed to find the right place to direct your giving is as consequential as the gift itself, and Sovereign Good acts as strategic advisors to help you feel confident about your giving. Philanthropic advising is a collective experience, and our team leverages a network of practitioners and field experts to make the strongest recommendations. Philanthropic institutions, government partners, non-profit organizations, and community leaders across every domain trust us because we show up alongside them. Their trust allows us to see what no database or algorithm can: true community impact beyond the numbers.

Our firm is happy to help you direct your giving across the world. Our Principals currently reside in Chicago, IL, and Los Angeles, California.

Why should I work with Sovereign Good?
icon

Our four principals are born and raised in the communities often at the center of philanthropy. Lived experience coupled with academic rigor and corporate expertise has also allowed us to build a network of program officers, community leaders, grantees, and institutional funders across every issue area to guide our recommendations. Senior Partners, Associates, and boutique Advisors at competing firms offer technical expertise but often lack the network to move beyond a transactional engagement. For Sovereign Good, no recommendation comes from a single person. Instead, we advise as a collective, guided by our peers and community.
