TPF

The Tipping Point Fund (“TPF”) is a donor collaborative aimed at supporting the growth of the impact investing field through strategic grantmaking. The TPF launched in December 2019 with an initial $12.5 million in philanthropic capital, which will be used to support infrastructure that is critical to the continued growth and fidelity of the impact investing market. The funding will help build on existing field building efforts by prioritizing the areas that are chronically under-funded, are best suited for collective action and that require additional support beyond that provided by individual grantmaking.

The two grantmaking priorities are:

• Public engagement and policy (e.g., communications campaigns, policy advocacy and implementation) to encourage and enable more investors to enter the market
• Data, metrics and measurement (e.g., standard impact measurement and management fundamentals, data interoperability) to provide greater clarity to market actors and ensure high standards of impact accountability
