From Concept to Movement: TBP Project’s 5-Year Impact Report

What was originally conceptualized as a five-year awareness and organizing campaign has evolved into a dynamic movement that has laid the groundwork for profound culture change across the philanthropic sector.

This report about the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project’s first five years details five key areas of impact:

• Sectorwide recognition of the trust-based approach

• Thousands of funders who have changed their behavior and embraced trust-based practices

• Hundreds of orgs that have integrated cultural and structural changes that reflect trust-based values

• A new narrative that has crystalized around funders working collaboration with nonprofits

• A growing network of advocates who believe in the transformative power of trust-based philanthropy
