Trust-Based Philanthropy Starts Here

Are you a funder interested in jumpstarting or deepening your trust-based journey? You've come to the right place.

Assess your starting point. Start with our self-reflection tool to examine how trust currently shows up in your work, and where you might have some room to grow.

Peruse our resources. We have open source webinar recordings, how-to guides, and templates available to download on our Resources page. Peruse the library to find what you're looking for, and contact us if there's a resource you need but can't find.

Join our learning community for grantmakers. The Trust-Based Peer Exchange is a listserv for grantmakers who want to connect with other funders on the trust-based journey and share ideas, questions, lessons, and insights.

Invite a trust-based speaker to present to your organization. If you need help making the case to your board and/or staff, request a speaker here.
