We’re Opening Up New Paths
for Philanthropy

We partner with nonprofits, funders, and community leaders to experiment transparently, learn openly, and bring a flexible approach to philanthropy — committed to centering, listening, and adapting to ever-changing community needs.

Magic Cabinet Commits $7.5 million to Native Voices Rising to Strengthen Native-led Organizations
Magic Cabinet has committed $7.5 million over five years to Native Voices Rising to strengthen Native-led organizations. The partnership combines Magic Cabinet's community-driven model with NVR’s grassroots approach, providing long-term investments and flexible funding to support Native sovereignty and nonprofit capacity.
Sometimes, getting to yes means rewriting the rules. When our capacity-building model became too limiting, we trusted the expertise of our partners—seeding an idea that took root among multiple Magic Cabinet cohorts.
