Inaugural Philanthropitch Columbus Event Raises over $100K
Philanthropitch Columbus presented by Kiwanis Club of Columbus and co-hosted by SocialVentures brought together members of the nonprofit and corporate communities for an evening of philanthropic celebration. The inaugural Columbus event donated $104,475 in total, which was split amongst our seven finalist organizations below.
Ruling our Experiences: $39,814
Modcon Living: $26,932

Revenue and profit, innovation and scale - these are not words most people associate with philanthropy. However, this is changing as nonprofits explore new models to grow their impact without relying entirely on donations. Philanthropitch stands as a testament to this idea and uplifts the communities that also support and share this ideology. Thanks to our Title Sponsor Kiwanis Club of Columbus and event Co-Host SocialVentures, we established lasting relationships in Columbus and made an impact for seven local nonprofits.
Philanthropitch is excited to return to Columbus again in 2020 to support even more organizations. We would also like to extend a big thank you to all of our event sponsors:
