👀Fact: The grants funders make to groups based in the Global South and East tend to be smaller, on average, than the grants they give to organizations outside these regions to work there. ➡️For example, direct grants to recipients in Asia and the Pacific are more than three times smaller ($67M) than the grants organizations outside Asia and the Pacific receive to work there ($267M). 👉🏽 Learn more from the findings of HRFN’s “Trust Gap” report here : https://bit.ly/3rBEDfi #AdvancingHumanRights #HumanRightsFunding #BetterFundingData #TrustGapReport #Philanthropy #HumanRights #Data #Funding [Image description: Light yellow poster with black text on the top left: Average Human Rights Grant Size by Beneficiary Region and Recipient Location (2019).

Check out this video with the 2023 MyImpact Challenge Grand Prize Winner, Caroline Gao, as she describes her organization, The World in Us, and what she learned and values about BRI's student civic engagement contest. #MyImpactChallenge #civics #BRI
We had the opportunity to catch up with Caroline Gao, the Grand Prize winner of BRI's 2023 MyImpact Challenge civic engagement contest. Listen to Caroline describe her nonprofit, The World in Us, a youth-to-youth cultural education organization, and the ways in which MyImpact Challenge helped her to connect concepts like citizenship skills and civic virtues to her work. “These are foundational skills and ways of thinking that I don’t think I would have internalized nearly as much as I have now if not for the MyImpact Challenge,” Gao said. https://lnkd.in/ebyqpN3X.

It's official! The Trust for Civic Life has launched! An exciting day for folks building civic infrastructure, particularly in rural communities. From Hollie Russon Gilman, Ph.D.: The Trust is a new philanthropic collaborative and learning network with a simple mission: support local efforts that bring residents together to solve challenges they decide are most critical for their community to thrive. In times of polarization, we believe this is one critical step in the process of rebuilding trust in each other and forging a deeper democracy. https://lnkd.in/gQwUbPPH #democracy

On May 7, 1986, President Ronald Reagan issued proclamation 5472, recognizing the day as National #BarrierAwarenessDay, and calling upon Americans to create events and programs that would contribute to removing obstacles for people with disabilities. Today, we're reminded to continue to work to eliminate social, legal, economic, and physical barriers that confront individuals with disabilities. Not only do we try to eliminate physical barriers everyday through our #accessibility solutions, with our non-profit AmrampCARES we also hope to help more people with financial barriers that may keep them from gaining the access they need, even to their own homes. You can learn more about AmrampCARES and donate to the cause at https://amrampcares.org/ #BarrierAwareness #AccessibilityForAll #FindYourForward

A transformative vision is taking shape in Saginaw County, one that is set to transform the very fabric of our community. Led by a coalition of passionate community leaders from education, business, healthcare, and community non-profit, the Community Engagement and Inclusion Council (CEIC) is poised to create a brighter, more inclusive, and equitable future for all in our county. From grassroots conversations to impactful action, 2021 marked the genesis of a movement in Saginaw County. Community leaders, driven by a collective ambition for progress, spearheaded the creation of a robust diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice (DEIBJ) vision and strategic plan. This strategic plan provides a roadmap that promises to propel Saginaw County toward a future where diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice are cornerstones, not aspirations. For questions or to receive additional information, email the CEIC at [email protected]. Read more about the CEIC strategic plan introduction: https://lnkd.in/gB65qwFK

Timely report launched today by Onward on the subject of #philanthropy (brilliantly researched & written by Shivani H Menon). https://lnkd.in/e-qK3VeV Very good to see government, and in particular Department for Culture, Media and Sport Minister Lucy Frazer, backing the report. I was glad to join a panel with the Minister to discuss the report (video below). It offers some sobering statistics - such as the fact that the wealthiest 10% of UK society give less proportionately than the poorest 10%. There is some "low hanging fruit" that the report helpfully outlines, including for example making tax breaks simpler. The points that I attempted to make in the discussion related largely to making the case for a longer term debate on shifting the culture. A combination of increasing size of government and secularisation of British society over last few generations arguably means that we need to try to find new mechanisms to encourage giving. https://lnkd.in/eCxNEZAk
