Social impact through culture change
Lyda Hill Philanthropies encompasses the charitable giving initiatives of founder Lyda Hill, and LH Capital comprises her investment portfolio, together unlocking impact in nature and science. We invest across asset classes, and on rare occasions we incubate initiatives internally, like IF/THEN®.
We are convinced that representation in media and the visual world around us plays an outsized role in how young people think about their future careers. IF/THEN® is in a prime spot to team up with brands, nonprofits, and creators to finance, develop, produce, house or distribute content that actually makes a difference. Our approach is a two-fold:
-
1) Produce, Influence & Distribute Content
Through its affiliates, IF/THEN® invests across asset classes to depict women in STEM in media in ways that motivate more girls and women to emerge as future STEM leaders.
-
2) Advance STEM Education & Scientific Research
A future-ready STEM workforce demands all kinds of talent and ideas are at the table. Lyda Hill remains committed to supporting STEM education and advancing basic and applied scientific research.
