Erinn Andrews is the Founder and CEO of GiveTeam, a unique philanthropic planning company that specializes in supporting donors who give away ~$10K–1M per year and want to be more intentional in their giving. GiveTeam collaborates with financial professionals to better serve their clients' charitable needs. They help donors develop a charitable mission statement and identify nonprofits to consider funding aligned with their goals. Prior to founding GiveTeam, Erinn led the Effective Philanthropy Learning Initiative at Stanford’s Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society (PACS) where she conducted research to understand donor behavior, published resources for high-capacity donors and advisors supporting high-capacity donors, and developed innovative education programs—for donors and financial advisors. Before Stanford PACS, Erinn led GuideStar’s (now Candid) nonprofit strategy, managing the largest database of nonprofit information in the US. While at GuideStar, she developed and launched the GuideStar bronze, silver, gold, and platinum levels of distinction, encouraging more organizations to self-report qualitative and (standardized) quantitative impact data. After earning her B.A. and M.A. from Stanford University, she launched a nonprofit called Philanthropedia to identify high-impact nonprofits across multiple cause-areas. Philanthropedia was ultimately acquired by GuideStar. Erinn serves as President of the national board of Advisors in Philanthropy, acts as a “Kitchen Cabinet” advisor to Northern California Grantmakers, and is a member of the Peninsula Latina Giving Circle. |
