This in-person workshop “Making the Case for Trust-Based Philanthropy” is part of the Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy Conference happening June 3-5, 2024 in New Orleans, LA. Registration is required.

Note: this is a three hour workshop, with one portion before lunch and one portion after lunch. Please plan to stay for the whole thing.

As trust-based philanthropy gains recognition across the sector, more and more funders, individual donors, and grantmaking professionals are leaning in to alleviate power imbalances and advance community impact. And while many have an intuitive understanding of why trust-based philanthropy is the way to go, many are still grappling with how to make the case to their colleagues/leadership.

Being able to make the case is an important skill to cultivate as you seek to inspire organizational change toward trust-based philanthropy. Regardless of where you sit in your organization, you can play a pivotal role in managing up and facilitating organizational change.

Join the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project for an interactive skill-building workshop where we will break down all that you want to know about making the case for trust-based philanthropy, including how to advocate for change, how to lead from your seat, and how to respond to questions and misperceptions.
