Where the Money Goes: Four Core Areas of Impact
The Shanly Foundation’s giving strategy reflects Michael Shanly’s hands-on business philosophy: identify concrete needs, act decisively, and ensure solutions are built to last. The Foundation’s grants fall into four main categories, each addressing critical gaps in community support.
Education and Special Needs: Creating Pathways for Every Child
The Foundation’s most transformative single investment has been in education, specifically supporting children who struggle in traditional academic settings. In 2013, the Shanly Foundation fully funded the launch of Beech Lodge School in Berkshire—a specialised institution founded by Shanly’s wife, Daniela, and other educators to provide alternative educational approaches for children with social and learning difficulties.
