FOUNDATION MODEL

WAAM connects to important nonprofit music organizations, both locally and nationally, through our relationships and research efforts. These organizations provide detailed information about their organization during an application process, as they seek support. All information is captured in a database for analysis.

WAAM applies a systematic and thorough process to evaluate and allocate funds to organizations on the basis of key metrics, such as charity ratings, proposed use of funding, longevity, diversity of board and overall impact to people and society.

WAAM strives to provide considerable financial and other support in partnership with organizations, influencing the use of funds and assisting in the development of new initiatives.

WAAM requires regular and rigorous reporting from the organizations we support, allowing us to consistently monitor and assess their execution on the metrics on which we based our allocation. This will allow us to provide real-time guidance, as well as assist us in determining future support.
