Issue Areas

We don’t just take on any project that comes our way. We are selective about the projects we choose because we’re not just after results- we’re after meaningful change. We invest and work in the following issue areas as we believe they hold the greatest opportunity for advancing our vision of social justice:

Sustainable Communities

We believe strong, healthy, and connected communities benefit us all. And we know that the issues a community faces are often interrelated. From access to affordable housing to protecting our planet and workplace wellness, it’s exactly why we’re committed to supporting issues that impact the places where we live, learn, work, and play.

Education + Tech

Access to education is one of those most powerful tools that people can have to create a better life for themselves and their family. In a country with no shortage of jobs, Mission Partners fights to help people gain access to the skills that help make them suited for the job.

Health

We believe the health of an individual includes physical, mental, and social well-being. Many of the organizations we support are working to assure the conditions in which people can be healthy. We take an intentional focus on the health of children, supporting healthy habits early in life that will lead to well-being later in life.

Journalism + The Arts

In a world where it is increasingly difficult to decipher fact from fiction, we believe firmly in the role of public media, solutions journalism, and the arts to inform, educate, and inspire. We know the power of the arts in bringing together communities that have been torn apart due to systemic barriers, in supporting academic success, and in bridging cultural divides.

Women + Girls

As a woman-owned and women-led firm, we know the unique challenges that women and girls face in every aspect of their lives. We firmly believe that if women and girls have access to all the resources they need to reach their full potential, our society as a whole will benefit. We know the power of women and their stories and are determined to amplify those voices.
