Place-Based Philanthropy
Place-based philanthropy is a strategic approach where donors focus their resources and efforts on a specific location, such as a single neighborhood, municipality, or collection of counties. The model supports multiple organizations as they launch programs in a dedicated area, creating a collaborative and truly powerful approach to philanthropy.
We launched the pilot for our place-based philanthropy model in Southeast San Diego, fostering collaboration between multiple organizations serving the area. By adopting a place-based approach to our philanthropy and Booz Allen employee engagement, we’ve been able to support the overall local economic development ecosystem while helping community organizations keep pace with technological innovation.
With the success of the pilot in San Diego, we brought the same formula to the nation’s capital. The Washington, DC program focuses on the neighborhoods east of the Anacostia River. With different but complementary approaches, these organizations all strive to create greater access to technological education and career pathways for DC-area students and young adults.
Today, we proudly support several leading organizations in San Diego and Washington, DC:

Partnership With Blue Star Families

Through our grant, Blue Star Families will connect its K–12 students with AI and advanced tech education in the coming year. As a leading military service organization, Blue Star Families understands the unique challenges of military life and shares our commitment to ensuring military families can thrive in an increasingly digitized world.
