We are thrilled to announce that our 2024 National Youth of the Year event will be co-chaired by Bill Rogers, chairman and chief executive officer of Truist Financial Corporation, and Allison Dukes, chief financial officer at Invesco Ltd. The Youth of the Year program honors and celebrates the nation’s most inspiring teens and their incredible journeys. Young people are recognized for their outstanding leadership, service, academic excellence, and dedication to health and wellbeing; it is the highest honor a Boys & Girls Club youth can receive. Each year, one exceptional young person is named National Youth of the Year, representing Boys & Girls Clubs of America as a teen ambassador, and serving as a voice for millions of Club youth across the country. As co-chairs of the National Youth of the Year leadership committee, Rogers and Dukes will work collaboratively with fellow business and community leaders, professionals, and philanthropists to help elevate the event, strengthen its impact, and raise critical funds so even more young people can experience the life-enhancing programs offered at Boys & Girls Clubs. Thank you, Bill and Allison, for your support and dedication to empowering youth!

Invest in the Junior League of Los Angeles and invest in more women in nonprofit leadership!

**GIA READER** Moving the Needle on Systems Change in Arts Philanthropy Lisa Payne Simon, MPH, Stratton Lloyd, MBA, and Karen Ristuben "Providing leadership and support for systems change in the arts and culture that also tackles pressing community needs is one way for place-based foundations to become changemakers and differentiate themselves among donors," said Simon, Lloyd, and Ristuben. "Many foundations ask, how can such complex work be accomplished? How do we focus efforts and resources? One strategy is the application of systems change frameworks to drive local action intentionally. Frameworks provide place-based arts and culture funders (and funders working in other topic areas) with a compass to navigate the waters of systems change, moving from framework to practice and, ultimately, to impact."

KAPAAW launches New Nonprofit, the Kentucky Foundation for Black Women and Families (KFBWF): Addressing Systemic Inequities and Empowering Black Communities Lexington, KY – May 13, 2024 – The Kentucky Foundation for Black Women and Families, Incorporated (KFBWF) is proud to announce its official launch, dedicated to addressing systemic barriers and empowering Black women and families across Lexington, Kentucky. With a mission to combat inequities and provide tailored support, KFBWF aims to create lasting impact and positive change in our communities. Across our community, many Black women and families face systemic barriers and inequities that hinder their ability to thrive. Limited access to quality education, economic opportunities, and healthcare disproportionately affects Black individuals and families. Existing support systems often fail to address the unique challenges and experiences faced by Black women and families, leaving them underserved and overlooked. KFBWF Incorporated recognizes these challenges and is committed to providing tailored solutions and support to empower Black women and families. Our new programs, including after-school initiatives, family advocacy services, and workforce development opportunities, are designed to address the specific needs of our community. By offering comprehensive resources, mentorship, and educational programs, KFBWF Incorporated aims to bridge the gaps and create pathways to success for Black individuals and families. Through KFBWF programs, Black women and families will gain access to the tools, resources, and support they need to thrive. By participating in our initiatives, individuals will experience increased educational attainment, economic stability, and improved overall well-being. Ultimately, our goal is to empower Black women and families to lead fulfilling lives, achieve their dreams, and contribute positively to their communities. “We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.” - Maya Angelou For more information about KFBWF and our programs, visit: https://linktr.ee/kfbwf

Successful companies have a board of representatives that ensures the company is always headed in the right direction. Nonprofits, churches, institutions, etc., have a board of directors or a board of trustees. Just like for business, we as individuals must identify people to serve on our personal “board of directors.” Do not just choose like-minded people, either. To be adequately shaped—you have to have accountability. Who is on your board? Is it diverse? Are you seeking mentorship?

Collaborative equity-focused strategist that leverages the principles of Humanism to develop and manage innovative social impact programs, strategic partnerships, and philanthropic grant-making initiatives.
https://lnkd.in/eJUQVXJq "For the philanthropic world, ensuring Black futures starts with the practical work of funding today’s Black-led organizations in ways that allow them to thrive into the future. I can think of a few ways philanthropy can do that: 1. No more forcing Black-led organizations to live grant check to grant check. 2. Draw on all your assets to support Black leaders. 3. Fund with care. 4. Rethink risk."
