So. True. We need #vaccineequity to #endthepandemic.

[ONE @ONECampaign]

It's been two years of the pandemic and we’re fed up. It’s time leaders of rich countries stop playing with fire and commit to #EndThePandemic. 🔥

If you agree, watch & share this video! 👇

The Reconstruction: Rey Ramsey on deploying 100% of foundation assets toward positive impact & racial equity.

“People hide behind the issue of financial returns. And that is a ruse, and it is an excuse,” Ramsey told @nickalee76 on The Reconstruction. https://t.co/2U0481upu6

[Nealon @NealonDeVore]

This is super exciting!

[Nathan Cummings Foundation @NCFImpact]

At the heart of our mission-aligned investing is a commitment to make our investing process robust, inclusive, and anti-racist.

Grateful to the authors and BIPOC asset mangers who provided this roadmap and proud to be among the initial signatories.

Turnout in Georgia’s 6/9 primary (final):

1,283,836 Democratic votes
1,033,308 Republican votes

Georgia has changed.
Democrats are energized.
Republicans are running scared.

"You get a return because of what you’re doing not despite it. This is about power. If you don’t talk about power, you never make systems change.

Who manages the money? What happens with capital? We haven’t done enough and we must keep pushing the envelope." ~Rey Ramsey #MIELive

Time to give more!

[NCRP @NCRP]

As markets collapse and nonprofits face drastic drops in government and private support, it is no time for philanthropy to think about cutting back. Instead, we must give more. https://t.co/Cyj7GsDOC8 by @NCRP's Aaron Dorfman and @WallaceGlobal's @EllenD35 via @Philanthropy

@SenSchumer please fight for the inclusion of nonprofits in #covid19 relief! They employ and serve millions!

[National Council of Nonprofits @NatlCouncilNPs]

Congress is ready to flood for-profit businesses with cash, but giving charities little respect. Tell Sens and Reps https://t.co/L8Dlmw3Wjy “I urge you to include the policy solutions proposed by the #nonprofit community https://t.co/knsh5gPyYS in #COVID19 relief legislation.”

It’s time to talk and follow up with action!
