We’re Opening Up New Paths
for Philanthropy

At Magic Cabinet, we work creatively and collaboratively to reinvent the sector, so nonprofits can simply do what they do best. We partner with nonprofits, funders, and community leaders to experiment transparently, learn openly, and bring a flexible approach to philanthropy — committed to centering, listening, and adapting to ever-changing community needs.

We partner with funders to design giving strategies rooted in community priorities and backed by more than 15 years of experience. Whether you’re new to philanthropy or refining your approach, we’re here to support your giving goals.

Magic Cabinet CEO, Christina Engel, shares an update on what's ahead for the organization as we shift into the next stage of our growth.
In a recent conversation with several Solano County partners, we discussed how funders can contribute to equitable investments in Solano County nonprofits.
Our approach has evolved, but our values remain unchanged. Our intermediary partnerships with the Decolonizing Wealth Project and Native Voices Rising helped us reach farther without stepping away from what matters.
