The Draper Richards Foundation
The Draper Richards Foundation provides selected social entrepreneurs with funding of $100,000 annually for three years. The funds are specifically and solely for entrepreneurs starting new non-profit organizations. The Draper Richards Fellowships are highly selective. They only award six fellowships per year so they can fully engage with their portfolio of grantee organizations.
Draper critiques the ability of the organization to create significant social change. The idea must be sustainable and scalable, and the founder must have the skills to manage a national or global organization.
The Draper Richards Foundation was founded in 2002. Funders William H. Draper, III and Robin Richards Donohoe, venture capitalists who have run highly successful funds together, believe in the power of innovation and passionate individuals to change the world.
