What We're Learning - Kenneth Rainin Foundation

What We’re Learning

The Kenneth Rainin Foundation shares what it has learned through its work in the Arts, Education and Health.

The Kenneth Rainin Foundation takes smart risks to achieve impactful breakthroughs. In philanthropy, we have an imperative to try untested, creative approaches with the potential to be transformative. When a new program or idea we invest in doesn’t meet expectations, we don’t see it as a failure. It’s an opportunity to learn and share it with others. We also learn from our successes. We report on our progress and share what we are learning so others can build on that knowledge and amplify the impact.
