In an open letter to MacKenzie Scott, Inside Philanthropy writer Dawn Wolfe encourages support of Fund the People and our sister org, All Due Respect (headed by the amazing Alicia Jay). As Dawn writes, Fund the People works “to convince funders that the ‘overhead myth’ really is just that.” But we think funders, in their heart of hearts, already know that. What they don’t know is: what’s the alternative? What do I do differently? What is a better - but hyper-realistic - way of structuring funding to fuel nonprofit efficiency, effectiveness, and impact? So in addition to critiquing the past and present, we have sought to reframe the problem and offer a very common sense solution. Instead of pointing fingers about who caused or maintains the harmful old myths (hint: it’s all of us), we propose a new way of managing reality (hint: we can all be part of it). It’s a framework — a mental model and practical model — that we’ve developed and continue to hone, and that we’ve presented on our podcast, in workshops, and at conferences. This May will be 10 years since we launched Fund the People. We’ll celebrate our first decade of work by launching a new program that teaches our transformative new framework!

For Inside Philanthropy I've taken the almost-certainly ineffective liberty of advising #MacKenzieScott to provide "tremendous value" to the entire philanthrosphere by backing organizations and efforts to reform the field: end charitable wealth hoarding; provide #livingwages and benefits to #nonprofitworkers, and stop #CrappyFundingPractices. #DonorRevolt Crappy Funding Practices Fund the People #AllDueRespect #foundations #nonprofits #workersrights #endwealthhoarding

We’ve been working hard behind the scenes this winter to get our mission language & board governance more focused so that we can more effectively appeal to corporate and foundational giving programs. This article helps explain why that work was so necessary:
Front page quote from our friends at Access Philanthropy. It makes the work harder for nonprofits like us to get our story to places where a response is more likely - but we know we have to package our educational mission in a way that corporate boards will understand they will benefit from: https://lnkd.in/gyAwnGYa

"When we know better, we do better". It's January...and fundraisers across the country have their 2024 efforts planned, dialed, and set in motion. But do those plans utilize Community-Centric Fundraising principles? Community-Centric Fundraising is a fundraising model that is grounded in equity and social justice, prioritizing the entire community over individual organizations, fostering a sense of belonging and interdependence, presenting work not as individual transactions but holistically, and encouraging mutual support between nonprofits. This is a wonderful article to learn from and be inspired by—now, more than ever, we must challenge ourselves to unlearn and progress our work for the betterment of all! "There is no perfect time. There is no perfect plan. You just need to start making changes today because dismantling harmful fundraising practices is the right thing to do." #Nonprofit #NonprofitLeadership #Nonprofits #NonprofitCommunity #Fundraising #Fundraisers #FundraisingIdeas #FundraisingStrategy #CommunityImpact #Philanthropy

I found it really interesting to dive into the insights from the latest survey by Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) involving 200 seasoned professional advisers! 📊 The revelations are eye-opening, shedding light on the current landscape of advising HNWIs on philanthropy. What caught my attention? The startling fact that "nearly three-quarters of respondents did not include philanthropy as part of their initial fact-finding with clients." Here's the kicker: 21% of these advisers acknowledged a direct correlation between offering philanthropic advice and winning new business! That's not just a coincidence; it's a golden opportunity to not only enhance your standing as an adviser but also contribute to causes that desperately need financial backing. This also surprised me - a staggering 22% admitted being in the dark about where to guide their clients. This is where Community Foundation Wales comes in. Whether your client envisions supporting grassroots causes, a specific locale, or desires to go beyond the mainstream charities, we can help. If you're keen on mastering the art of discussing philanthropy with your clients and empowering them to make a meaningful impact in their local community, look no further. Drop me a message, and find out how you can help your clients to achieve transformative philanthropy with us. 💙🌈 #Philanthropy #AdvisoryExcellence #CommunityImpact #TransformativeGiving
