Trust Based Philanthropy

September 10, 2021 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

How do we help our donors and colleagues truly connect with our organization’s purpose and the community it serves? Community only exists because of the individuals within it, and trust is only possible when relationships between donors, staff, and constituents are deepened. It is important to get to know the people that work together to both achieve our mission but also benefit from the work we do. We are all one in achieving our mission.

 

Join Dr. Amalia Luxardo, and Kerri Lopez-Howell to learn how two local foundations are serving their communities by breaking down the traditional barriers that exist between donors, staff, and constituents. Learn how they are building sustainable organizations that can thrive now and in the future.
