“Young people are deeply aware of what the issues are...putting them in the decision-making power to drive where dollars are going, to signal what the most innovative solutions are, is, I think, really smart grantmaking,” 👏👏👏
- @ManuelaArcLas of @AndrusFamFund
In a typical room where nonprofits do the work of grantmaking, the faces around that table likely don’t reflect the communities that will receive that charity. This foundation wants to change that. f-st.co/QCbWRgJ

"In reflecting on #philanthropy’s practices, funders can transform themselves from the inside out...ensuring that resources go where they are needed most — from the perspective of communities who carry the burden & live the impact." @AndrusFamFund @NCRP bit.ly/3f7Da7P
