Jasmine Social Investments
About

Jasmine Social Investments is a New Zealand-based private foundation started by the entrepreneur Sam Morgan in 2006 following the sale of his company Trade Me to Fairfax Media. Their goal is to engage in high impact philanthropy, i.e., donate to high impact charitable organizations and also help guide other high-net-worth individuals achieve greater impact with their donations.


They fund experienced entrepreneurs developing scalable models to provide healthcare, education and improved livelihoods to the world's most disadvantaged.


The social entrepreneurs they fund are “private sector capable” but are drawn to create lasting change through social enterprise. They seek execution ability – and expect to see measurement of true impact – kids educated, more than schools built.


They actively share what they learn with other high-net-worth individuals and foundations who share their approach. They often invest together. They build long-term relationships directly with the people running the organisations they fund and expect regular, quantitative and qualitative reporting and complete frankness, openness and transparency.
