About Us
Trusted Partners Are Important to Our Success
Since then, with modest resources and expanding in-kind support, the WVI DF has demonstrated a remarkable track record of success via its growing Leadership + Mentorship Program for underserved high-school youth, collaborating with major partners such as Google, NYPD, Brookhaven National Labs, YMCA, and others. Demand Continues to Grow Students attend four on-site action-learning career-development modules, are mentored by a network of 32 accomplished volunteer professionals – then graduate and receive continued mentorship support. Our program graduated 11 in our first year – and we now graduate between 60 and 70 students each year – and partner demand continues to grow.

Wealth and Values Initiative: Our History
Our organization began with a Wealth and Values Initiative to support the successful intergenerational transfer of legacy family wealth and values.
With an emphasis on preparing Legacy Families and their businesses for intergenerational, international, and intercultural success, WVI’s unique programs have provided thought leadership and best practices, high-level peer-to-peer networking experiences, groundbreaking Next Gen programs, and exposure to compelling co-investment opportunities.
This has given our participants the opportunity to make an impact at family, local, national, and global levels as they move from success to significance.
We have now evolved and created more than projects – but experiences that exhibit the compelling need for wealth and values to extend through future generation leaders.
Our Theory of Change
The Dolphin Code of Conduct
and Our Growing “Virtuous Circle”
The beating heart of our foundation and leadership and life skill mentorship program is our Dolphin Code of Conduct:
Give first and keep giving
Earn trust with every touch
Add value even
if there is no transaction
if there is no transaction
Be a serial connector for others
Build long-term relationships and community
Monetize for positive impact
