Two years ago, the pandemic was an emergent, novel crisis. Last year, it was “the new normal,” but the Baltimore Community Foundation’s response and that of its fundholders, donors and partners remained fiercely urgent.
Over the course of a year, Philanthropy New York's Leadership Transitions Funders Group has engaged a group of NYC-based funders in building a community of practice. The goal has been to strengthen funder practices around supporting nonprofits going through leadership transitions and to more broadly address transition patterns or moments as they arise within the movements/fields we support.
What we’ve learned about funder behavior and funder practices transcends the space of supporting leadership transitions. In other words, adopting holistic funding practices and supporting organizational capacity strengthens the nonprofit sector, period.
Maryland Philanthropy Network along with our peers with the Mid Atlantic Regional Partnership are excited to share this great opportunity for learning and engagement with our philanthropic peers across networks. Reimagine, a regional funding collaborative housed at the Greater Washington Community Foundation is hosting a free five-session funder learning series focused on deepening participants’ understanding of and comfort with community-led systems change work that transforms our economic system.
