If you don't already listen to the Let's Hear It Podcast, give it a listen, and start right here! 👇 Shout out right back to Eric Brown and Kirk Brown for being great hosts and leading a terrific conversation. #podcast #listen #listening #learning #nonprofits #funders #philanthropy
If you want to know something about trends in #philanthropy, your very best bet is to turn to the amazing people at the Center for Effective Philanthropy, who accomplish the rare magic of being able to conduct important research and communicate about it just as effectively. So, with all the crazy Kremlinology surrounding MacKenzie Scott's giving, Eric Brown sat down with the profoundly terrific Grace Nicolette at CEP to discuss their research to examine the effect of #Scottapalooza on the field of philanthropy. And a shout out to Grace and her colleague Phil Buchanan on the launch of the fourth season of their podcast Giving Done Right (givingdoneright.org), which everyone who cares about philanthropy should add to their queue. And after the interview, stick around for Eric and Kirk Brown's discussion that follows, which we found to be pretty fun, if we do say so ourselves. #humility https://lnkd.in/giSPzxwC

Hear from Darren Walker on the Giving Done Right podcast 👇 Available wherever you get podcasts! Thanks for sharing, The Chronicle of Philanthropy!
If you want to support organizations that fight to support justice, then you need to give general operation support, says Darren Walker, reflecting on his tenure as president of the Ford Foundation — not “highly curated, highly programmed and designed strategic grants.” Walker joined podcast hosts Phil Buchanan and Grace Nicolette with The Center for Effective Philanthropy for a conversation about bold philanthropic leadership, inequality, and the importance of investing in institutions that fight for justice. https://bit.ly/3zwOxmo
