About us

We seek to support innovation, are evidence-informed and measure what matters. To help achieve positive intergenerational change, PRF uses its resources to invest, build and influence.

Partnerships to drive positive change

Changing the conditions that create disadvantage is complex work and isn’t the role of any one organisation. As just one in player in the ecosystem working to create positive, intergenerational change, PRF works side by side with philanthropic peers, organisations and communities to make a difference.

Our research & resources

We take an evidence-informed approach to philanthropy and seek to understand what works and what doesn’t, under what circumstances and for who. We share knowledge and insights with those who can translate it into meaningful action.
