sankalpa was founded in 2015 by Ruth Layton as a way in which to enable changemakers to achieve significant local and global impact.
With a key investment focus on early stage research and implementation, we are able to work with differing geographic, cultural and societal barriers and constraints, understanding where they apply to each project. This detailed inception scoping ensures each project is scalable, with a clear bespoke rollout route, applicable to far larger impact initiatives.
It is our honest relationships that allow our model to work so well. By knowing, understanding and connecting with each sankalpa changemaker, we are certain that those in receipt of our investment are in the best possible position to make change happen.
In addition to supporting changemakers through direct social investment, sankalpa also aid and signpost other funders in using funds to best effect. Developing trusted investment models, reducing administration costs and maximising tax breaks, enables funds to go directly through changemakers into projects which make positive impacts on the world.
