This in-person deeper dive session “Embracing Trust-Based Philanthropy: Insights from an Indiana Community Foundation & the National Movement” is part of the National Conference for Growing Community Foundations happening October 18-20, 2023 in Wichita, Kansas. Registration is required.
Trust-based philanthropy has gained national, sector-wide attention as a framework to address power and build equity in philanthropy. In this session, we will explore the unique opportunities and challenges for community foundations seeking to embrace and implement trust-based philanthropy.
Together, we will dive deep into what it looks like for community foundations to lean into this approach fully, not just in our grantmaking practices, but in our values, culture, and leadership. We will hear from community foundation peers who are on their own trust-based journeys and explore strategies to implement this framework while engaging donors along the way. Attendees of this session will walk away with insights and tactical advice for how to take steps toward embracing all dimensions of trust-based philanthropy in their own work.
