Investing in
Lasting Change
The Posner Foundation invests in organizations across the globe and in our own community of Pittsburgh. We value strong relationships with our partners and seek to invest in their long-term visions. We do not accept unsolicited proposals. We are a spenddown foundation, and we intend to sunset our grantmaking by 2040.
We seek high-leverage opportunities to advance long-term structural solutions to social, economic, and environmental challenges in our backyard and around the world. We measure success through the results of our partners and seek opportunities to invest where others may not.
Building a Legacy
The Posner Foundation, founded in 1963, has evolved from a regional to a global philanthropic organization. Under the leadership of Henry Posner III, the foundation focuses on addressing social, economic, and environmental challenges worldwide.
