Strategy:
In 2006, the Kornfeld Foundation determined that its strategy going forward would be to make fewer, larger grants that would launch important new initiatives in its fields of interest. It is felt that such support is a very effective way to have long-term sustainable impact and to build partnerships with other funders.
