Focus Areas
Why we focus
By focusing our resources on select community issues, we are better able to drive and measure deep and meaningful change. We concentrate on identifying, growing and scaling innovative solutions to those social issues where we feel there is an unmet need and where we can have a profound impact.
All of the social ventures in our portfolio fall into one or more of our defined focus areas. Only organisations in our venture portfolio receive funding from SVA. However, we do provide other capacity building resources to the non-profit sector. To learn more about how you can access these resources, click here.

What we don’t focus on
SVA does not focus on organisations that have the primary of purpose of promoting:
• medical research
• care for people with a specific disease/medical condition and their families
• arts and culture
• religious activities
• international activities
We do not provide grants to individuals or for-profit organisations, and portfolio ventures must have DGR status. We invest primarily in management development and capacity building.
