Taking Stock: Philanthropy’s Role in Supporting Racial Equity

Join the Center for Effective Philanthropy’s Virtual Learning Session on January 27 for “Taking Stock: Philanthropy’s Role in Supporting Racial Equity.”

An ongoing pandemic, widespread economic misery, and a national reckoning about structural racism in the United States and elsewhere has roiled our society. In this context, what is philanthropy’s role in supporting the movement for racial justice? Has the broader conversation about race helped to move philanthropy towards more equitable giving practices? What are the key opportunities and challenges of this moment for foundations and donors that seek to give to support racial equity?

Featured artist Micah Bournes will present a recorded reading followed by a conversation with:

Yolanda Coentro, President & CEO of Institute for Nonprofit Practice; Tricia Raikes, Philanthropist & Principal of Raikes Foundation; Rashad Robinson, President of Color Of Change; and Darren Walker, President of Ford Foundation.

Moderated by CEP’s Grace Chiang Nicolette, this conversation will take stock of where philanthropy is and where it needs to be to ensure that all communities of color can reach their full potential.

The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation is proud to sponsor this event in partnership with premiere sponsor, the Walton Family Foundation and distinguished sponsor, the Archstone Foundation.

“Taking Stock: Philanthropy’s Role in Supporting Racial Equity,” runs from 2-3:30 p.m. Eastern Time on January 27. Register here.
