Who We Are
The Gadi Holdings Foundation was organized, and shall be operated for educational, scientific, and charitable purposes. The mission of GHF is to create memorable places and experiences with three key impact themes to build a better tomorrow: planet, people, and productivity. Within these themes, we strive for value creation and positive impact opportunities in response to pressing environmental and social problems.
The GHF fulfills its mission through three focuses:
1. Investments in innovative companies that place the value of environmental and/or social impact in their business model
2. Direct support in pressing environmental and social problems through donations, volunteering, and raising awareness
3. Legal support by providing access to legal services through direct representation or providing assistance
Planet
Investing In Our Planet
Excessive resource requirements due to population growth creates a larger demand for energy and food production, and damaging business practices accelerate pollution and depletion of natural assets, causing climate change and loss of biodiversity. GHF believes in integrating resource constraints and externalities into the capital allocation process. We support solutions that promote regenerative and resource efficient systems through innovation. Within this theme, we focus on the following:
Wildlife Conservation & Rehabilitation, Carbon Reduction, Clean Energy, Food Access & Security, Food Safety & Traceability, Nutrition, Agriculture Health, Waste & Recycling, and Water & Sanitation
People
Investing In People
Global population growth and the growing consumption exceeds available resources, with distribution inefficiencies leading to large enduring underserved population segments. Social, economic, and political polarization is also accelerating. GHF invests in solutions that provide access to fundamental services and products offerings that are more sustainable and responsible. We focus on businesses that promote respect, diversity and inclusion. Within this theme, we focus on the following:
Healthcare, Education, Transportation, Safety, Infrastructure, Capital & Financing, Clothing, and Food, Water, & Housing
Productivity
Investing In Productivity
Productivity and financial inclusion are huge drivers for sustainable economic growth and societal progress. Unfortunately, a lack of access to financial and business productivity exists today, particularly among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and social ventures. We believe that better access to financing, technology, and innovation will make businesses more efficient and productive. This will allow them to increase the quality and access of essential services and products to underserved segments of the population and create more jobs. Within this theme, we focus on the following areas with solutions that serve individuals and businesses better:
1. Labor Resources (Workforce Efficiency through skills, knowledge, time, and effort)
2. Capital Resources (Operational Efficiency through tools, technology, machinery, buildings, & financial assets)
