Join us for a dynamic DEI-focused "Meet the Funders" panel hosted by your local chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP)! We are excited to bring together a diverse group of funders—a foundation representative, a corporate funder, and an individual donor—to share their insights on how they integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion into their philanthropic practices.
Topics include how funders and fundraisers alike can apply an equity lens, what philanthropic equity means to them, and how they evaluate organizations' DEI efforts. We will also explore the challenges and growth opportunities for nonprofits, discuss power dynamics in philanthropy, and hear funders’ thoughts on trust-based philanthropy. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable perspectives, ask your questions, and network with peers committed to advancing equity in fundraising!
