Impact

Creating meaning beyond wealth.

Improving the quality of life for our families, and for others, is the reason the Guild exists.

Our Approach

Philanthropy as a family endeavour.

For the families of the Guild, giving is not a transaction. It is an expression of values shared across generations, and a way of teaching them.

We believe the most lasting impact comes from collaboration: families learning from one another, combining perspective and resources, and committing for the long term.

Legacy & Impact

Creating Meaning Beyond Wealth

For the families of the Guild, wealth is not the measure of a life well lived. What matters is what it makes possible: stronger families, healthier communities, and a world left better for those who follow.

  • Philanthropy

    Giving that is considered, collaborative and enduring.

  • Community

    Strengthening the places and people around us.

  • Family

    Supporting families to hold together across generations.

  • Legacy

    Values passed on with as much care as wealth.

  • Social Impact

    Directing attention and resources where they change lives.

  • Future Generations

    Decisions measured by what they leave behind.

From Our History

Harmony and reconciliation, in practice.

In July 2017, True Sioux Hope Foundation hosted a Family to Family Cultural Connectivity Event with the Global Family Guild on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.

The convening brought members of the Oglala Lakota Sioux Tribe together with family philanthropists, with the aim of encouraging long-term investment in the community.

The measure of a family is not what it holds, but what it passes on.
