How will foundations respond when they are challenged by groups who are on the front lines doing the social justice work that #equity demands? This is a question that The Colorado Health Foundation is currently living through: https://t.co/dEPpfDa8Ad @GIHealth @COHealthFDN

@DJ_CYN is here! #23CHS are you ready?!!

[CO Health Foundation @COHealthFDN]

An essential aspect of centering equity involves a foundation’s relationships with the groups it funds, especially community-based groups & groups led by people of color.

This is the Yin & Yang of equity-centered philanthropy. #23CHS

Capacity can be scarce in rural communities, reminds Sonja Merrild of @BlandinFound. The key for philanthropy is getting close to what's going on - it's our job within rural philanthropy to build people up. #GEO2022
