Draper Richards Kaplan Foundation (DRK)

DRK finds, funds and supports exceptional leaders with innovative and highly impactful ideas that have the potential to scale. DRK provides unrestricted capital, and, most importantly, provides rigorous, ongoing support by joining the board of directors and partnering with the leader to help build capacity in the organization and scale their impact. In particular, Enlight Foundation supports DRK’s selection of climate change-focused organizations.
Solutions Journalism Network

Solutions journalism investigates and explains, in a critical and clear-eyed way, how people try to solve widely shared problems. While journalists usually define news as “what’s gone wrong,” solutions journalism tries to expand that definition: Responses to problems are also newsworthy. By adding rigorous coverage of solutions, journalists can tell the whole story. In particular, Enlight Foundation’s support enables special focus on solutions journalism related to climate change.

Together, NatCap helps people, governments, and corporations incorporate the value of nature into decision-making.
