The Analyst Impact Fund at Goldman Sachs selected the Frankfurt team Every Cure as its winner after analysts pitched charitable projects to CEO David Solomon and executives. Every Cure won $250,000, with a total of $650,000 awarded collectively and 1,063 analysts competing in 2026. The program is shifting as more analysts use AI in their pitches and the winning teams use the funding to expand and accelerate tech-enabled charitable work, including AI-powered research and other initiatives.

Goldman Sachs has put $6 billion of philanthropic grants “in the hands of our analysts,” one exec says.
