In recent years, some foundations have made greater efforts to address systemic inequities by increasing funding to nonprofits serving communities of color. More than 40 percent of foundations report increasing their funding to nonprofits serving Black communities, and a little more than a quarter report doing so for nonprofits serving Latino communities.
However, other communities affected by systemic inequities, including Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) and Native American communities, appear to have been overlooked by foundation funders. In a pair of reports released in December 2021 the Center for Effective Philanthropy (CEP) shares research findings that illuminate these concerning trends.
Join CEP on March 22nd from 2-3:15pm EDT for an interactive panel discussion on the findings of these CEP reports. There is a registration fee of $35 per person.
Following a welcome from Grace Nicolette, vice president, programming & external relations, Ellie Buteau, vice president, research, will share the findings of CEP’s recent Overlooked reports. In the panel discussion that follows, you’ll hear from:
- Sampriti Ganguli, CEO, Arabella Advisors (moderator)
- Patricia Eng, President & CEO, Asian Americans/Pacific Islanders in Philanthropy (AAPIP)
- Vivian Long, Executive Director, Long Family Foundation
