Grantmaker: Advancing Trust-Based Philanthropy’s Call to Courage in 2025 and Beyond (Virtual)

May 22, 2025 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM (MST)

Description

Trust-Based Philanthropy

In a time of heightened urgency for the nonprofit sector, philanthropy is being called to step into a deeper level of solidarity and shared responsibility. Join AZ Impact for Good and the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project for a timely conversation on how funders can meet this moment with clarity, courage, and commitment. 

Guided by Chantias Ford of the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project, this session will spotlight Meet the Moment: A Call to Action for Philanthropy in 2025 — a bold initiative urging grantmakers to embrace trust-based, values-aligned practices amid a rapidly shifting social and political landscape. 

Together, we’ll explore how funders can move from theory to action — centering equity, fostering mutual accountability, and responding to the needs and aspirations of the communities we serve. This interactive session will include reflections, practical tools, and opportunities for dialogue among peers working to deepen their trust-based practice. 

Key Takeaways: 

  • Understand the Urgency: Learn about the national context prompting Meet the Moment, and why now is a critical time for philanthropy to lead with trust, equity, and courage. 
  • Explore the Framework: Gain insight into the principles and practices of trust-based philanthropy and how they can be applied to enhance your organization’s grantmaking strategy. 
  • Reflect on Readiness: Examine where your organization stands in its trust-based journey and identify both the challenges and opportunities in evolving your approach. 
  • Connect Values to Action: Discover practical ways to operationalize trust, reduce power imbalances, and center community voice in your funding relationships. 
  • Join a National Movement: Learn how to take part in the Meet the Moment commitment, and connect with a community of funders advancing systemic change through trust and accountability.
