About Redwoods
Climate philanthropy works best when connected.
Our Mission
Unlocking new money to supercharge climate action.
The Redwoods Collective was founded on a simple belief: that philanthropic capital, when equipped with the right knowledge and trusted connections, can move faster and go further toward the climate solutions we desperately need.
We bring together the combined expertise of leading scientists, field practitioners, and other climate leaders — then translate that knowledge into vetted, actionable opportunities for philanthropic professionals and their clients.
Why Redwoods
The name carries meaning.
Redwoods are among the most resilient organisms on Earth — not despite their interconnected root systems, but because of them. Shallow roots that interlock with neighboring trees allow ancient giants to withstand storms that would fell any individual tree. We built this organization around that same principle.
- Interdependence
- Our strength comes from collaboration — between scientists, advisors, donors, and the organizations doing the work on the ground. No single actor has all the answers.
- Rigor
- Every opportunity in our platform has been vetted according to best-in-class impact frameworks. Confidence in your recommendations starts with confidence in our diligence.
- Urgency
- The climate crisis does not wait. We exist to compress the time between intention and impact — giving advisors everything they need to act quickly and with conviction.
