Moving into 2016, GHR Foundation had an opportunity to reflect on progress made in the previous year and look to the future with a deep well of optimism. As a team, we often examine the future of GHR's work through the lens of a specific question: What would it take to ______?
What it would take to ensure all children are living in family or family-like environments? What would it take to prevent Alzheimer's disease? What would it take to close the educational achievement gap in the Twin Cities? What would it take to find new, innovative ideas from unlikely actors? These are the conversations that push us to think creatively as we examine our goals and seek to challenge the status quo. As we moved into a new year, we asked ourselves: What would it take to be the philanthropy our legacy demands?
GHR is pleased to share highlights of GHR Foundation’s progress in 2016. With an eye toward long-term, sustainable impact, we focused on asking those big questions and finding big, surprising, ambitious answers. We are excited by what we have learned, and we're even more excited to see what will happen next year. I look forward to sharing how thinking big will help us find and partner with those who make the world a better place.
