Epic Foundation: Helping transform lives and protect the planet
Posted by Carlota Vandekoppel on
We are proud to work with Epic as our local payroll giving partner and this year we sponsored both the London and Paris 2022 edition of Epic Nights Gala. The galas brought together an inspiring array of artists, influencers, tech and social entrepreneurs and leaders from around the world – all connected by a single mission of creating a better world.
Epic is a global foundation that exists to empower and protect children, youth and our planet. As such, Epic’s mission is strongly aligned with Bedrock’s philanthropic mission.
Through our sponsorship we are proud to contribute directly to the social organizations that the Epic Foundation supports around the world.
More about the Epic Foundation
Epic have backed over 48 non-profits and social enterprises to date and has mobilized over 60 million dollars. Their model focuses on driving positive change through three main streams:
Backing non-profits – helping to build and manage portfolios of highly-vetted non-profits to whom our strategic support will be game changing.
Mobilizing donors – offering innovative giving solutions so that individuals and companies alike can support Epic’s portfolios.
Guaranting impact – analyzing the performance of non-profits and reporting back to donors, to drive trust and accountability.

At the start of 2026, we continue to see a range of opportunities offering attractive value across certain focused parts of the corporate bond market. In this article, Bedrock’s Head of Fixed Income, Alex Perowne, outlines the five sectors we see as having notable value in the current environment.
Recent reports show that in 2025, families of significant means contributed $207 billion to philanthropic causes, accounting for 36% of all individual giving worldwide. This growth reflects not just increased generosity, but a shift toward more structured and disciplined approaches to giving, as families increasingly professionalise their philanthropic activity. To explore this evolving landscape, we spoke with Jo Shropshire, co-founder of Benesys, a leading philanthropic advisory firm.
