America has reached a fever pitch and many are hurt, tired, and trying to find a way forward. What we are seeing unfold is the culmination of centuries of traumatic white supremacy over the lives of Black people in this country. What will it take for America to finally and truly address its original sin, racism? What is philanthropy being called to do at this time? What can philanthropy do to dismantle white supremacy and advance social justice?

 

From May to July of 2020, the Center for High Impact Philanthropy and Philanthropy Network Greater Philanthropy developed the Regional COVID-19 Response Dashboard. With major support from William Penn Foundation and in collaboration with 13 shared funds launched to address COVID-19, the dashboard reflects more than $40 million in grant awards to 10 counties across Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. In this webinar, members of the teams that built the dashboard will provide a demonstration and virtual tour to help participants understand the functionality of different aspects of the dashboard, which is free and publicly available.

Their discussion will focus on reimagining wealth and ideas to radically change capitalism as we know it. Open to members of Philanthropy Network Greater Philadelphia and Grantmakers for Effective Organizations (GEO).
