We’ve been listening, and will continue listening and demonstrating that we hear you and value your insight through our programs and activities.

During our programming pause in 2024, one message came through clearly: there’s a desire for more relevant, practical conversation about what equity and inclusivity can—and should—look like in fundraising and philanthropy today.

That’s why we’re inviting you to join The Courage to Lead: Funding Our Work Here and Now in-person workshop on February 12 and the virtual session on March 12.

This experience is designed for people doing mission-driven work who are asking real, timely questions. Together, we’ll reflect on our current understanding of diversity and inclusion and what it means for us as fundraising professionals and nonprofit leaders. We’ll explore power dynamics and what it looks like to work across lines of difference, while also engaging this political moment as an opportunity to become more strategic—and values-aligned—in how we fund our work. Throughout the workshop, we’ll consider what accountability can look like in practice, and how we can better “walk our talk” in the systems and relationships we navigate every day.

This workshop isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about building shared understanding, clarity, and courage for the work ahead—grounded in lived experience and practical insight.

If you’ve been looking for space to reflect, learn, and engage in meaningful conversation about equitable and inclusive approaches to funding, we hope you’ll join us.

We look forward to being in this conversation with you.
