Our Approach

Since 2021, Squarepoint Foundation and its partners have focused on making a difference in communities around the world. From supporting local populations in need, advancing research and education in STEM fields, and providing crisis relief, we get involved in projects that produce meaningful change on a global level.

In addition to supporting global communities, we created a donation matching program for Squarepoint Capital employees, which encourages them to give back to the causes that matter most to them and have double the impact with Squarepoint Foundation's support.

Employees also have the opportunity to nominate organizations to become charitable partners of Squarepoint Foundation, extending the support and impact of our offerings.
