Empowering
philanthropy since 2003

Since 2003, The Althea Foundation has used a venture model to provide financial and non-financial support to people, ideas, and initiatives that demonstrate scalable ingenuity and social impact.

We focus on social challenges such as: advancing equality in education, entrepreneurship and technology; funding accelerators that support science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), research that improves ethics, transparency, and privacy across the internet and transparent AI‑enhanced philanthropic donor–grantee matching.

Our partners are investors, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists who scale and enhance our efforts. Our diversified partner network brings together academics, researchers, technologists, and universities to improve the economic and social health of our communities and the world.
