Who We Are
Foundations for Social Change is not a traditional non-profit. It acts as an incubator of new ideas that are tested scientifically and moved from pilot research into permanent policy. FSC engages with people from all levels of society to harvest bold, innovative designs for social change. Our purpose is to innovate new models that advance social change and shared property. Ultimately we envision an inclusive world where everyone thrives. In all that we do, as individuals and as a group, we are guided by the values of Courage, Compassion, and Connection.
