AFN’s Members Making Impact: Case Studies for Change & Innovation is a series that spotlights peer-driven investment strategies fueling systemic and policy change across AFN’s eight issue areas.
Tax policy rarely registers as a philanthropic priority. The subject feels technical, politically charged, and distant from the direct service work that defines most foundation portfolios. Yet for the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), it has emerged as one of the most consequential levers for advancing equity and strengthening families, and one of the least engaged by philanthropy. LEARN MORE
Opportunity youth—young people aged 15 to 29 who are not in school, training, or formal employment—represent one of the most promising yet underutilized talent pools in our global economy.
AFN member Prudential Financial is tapping into this potential through its Global Opportunity Youth Commitment, surpassing a $180 million investment to expand pathways to quality jobs, financial stability, and long-term wealth building. LEARN MORE
AFN member Charles Schwab Bank understands that community perspectives are key to creating philanthropic and asset-building strategies that are inclusive, responsive, and genuinely impactful. Moving beyond prescriptive funding models, the Bank is embracing responsive grantmaking that prioritizes the voices of those closest to the issues. They recognize that listening is fundamental to creating economic mobility and that those living with these challenges are often best positioned to identify effective solutions. But how can a foundation or asset funder
implement these solutions without starting from scratch in developing the concepts and process? For Charles Schwab Bank, that is where Listen4Good comes in. LEARN MORE
St. David’s Foundation is one of the largest health foundations in the United States, investing more than $100 million annually to support health and well-being across five Central Texas counties.
In 2024, as St. David’s Foundation adopted a new strategic plan elevating economic stability alongside access to care and community-driven change, leaders began examining healthcare workforce grantmaking differently. The question shifted from how many professionals the region needed to how healthcare careers could serve as entry points into multi-generational pathways to financial security. The result: the Pathways to Economic Stability for the Healthcare Workforce initiative, committing $10 million across 10 collaborative grants and more than 30 partner organizations. LEARN MORE
Founded in 1976 by Sam and Nancy Gary, Gary Community Ventures is an impermanent philanthropic organization committed to using all of its resources by 2035 to transform systems and build wealth for Colorado kids and families. Having built his fortune in oil and gas, Sam established the organization with the belief that business, philanthropy, and policy must play a role in improving outcomes for children and families. Over time, Gary Community Ventures adapted its organizational structure to reflect that belief. Today, the organization deploys a combination of grantmaking, venture creation, impact investing, and policy and advocacy to advance school readiness, youth success, and family economic mobility across Colorado.

National data show that if entrepreneurs cannot access capital within the first two weeks of a natural disaster, up to 40 percent may close permanently, and among those that do reopen, one in four will shut down within a year. The window for intervention is narrow, and timing often determines whether a business survives or disappears.
This urgency is felt acutely in Texas, which experiences more federally declared disasters than any other state. With small businesses representing 99 percent of Texas firms and nearly half the state’s workforce, each disaster threatens not only individual livelihoods but the stability of entire communities.
Recognizing these realities, Wells Fargo deepened its investment in disaster resilience through its long-standing partnership with LiftFund, a community lender with extensive experience supporting small businesses through economic shocks. LEARN MORE
Housing affordability and accessibility have become urgent challenges nationwide, and in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the crisis is no exception. The Winston-Salem Foundation (WSF) has steadily deepened its role in this space, moving from funding individual housing initiatives to helping connect the people, strategies, and resources needed for broader, more coordinated solutions.
