Day 1 Concurrent Session - The Whole Entrepreneur: Designing a Just and Equitable Business Ecosystem for Black and People of Color Businesses
While Black and Latinx residents make up 42% and 15% of the population respectively, they only own 8% and 3% of small businesses in the city.

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and a renewed pursuit for social justice, United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey, the City of Philadelphia, and PIDC have embarked on an endeavor to understand and address the unique needs of small businesses owned by Black and people of color, women, and immigrants in Philadelphia.

DAY 2 CONCURRENT SESSION | Trust-Based Philanthropy in 4D: Values, Cultures, Leadership, Practice
The potential of trust-based philanthropy goes beyond unrestricted grants and streamlined paperwork. Trust-based philanthropy can show us the way toward co-creating a sector in which community and nonprofit leaders are valued, supported, and trusted. For this vision to become the norm in philanthropy, funders must center trust in every dimension of our work, both internally and externally. This begins with acknowledging and addressing issues of power and equity in all aspects of our organizations.

Day 3 Concurrent Session - What's Your Equity Footprint?
It is not enough for foundations to simply avoid inequitable practices in a society premised on white supremacy and patriarchy; rather, foundations must consciously dedicate themselves to centering equity in all facets of their institutions’ work. Rather than simply minimizing a damaging footprint, an Equity Footprint invites the foundation to enact positive, equitable change.This conversation seeks to provide a framework, a lens, and perhaps some tools to support foundations to interrogate their respective cultures, practices and norms, toward the aim of embedding equity.

Day 3 Concurrent Session - Local Activism and the Pursuit of Racial Justice
A single voice is often not heard and yet, when they come together, the world can hear. How can we come together to ensure that activism and promotion of redress of U.S. historical racial justices are brought to the forefront of our communities? While high-profile reparation efforts garner media attention, many local restitution efforts often lack greater support and cross-sector awareness. The U.S. African American Redress Network is an innovative model for scholars and advocates to further groundbreaking work in activism and to promote redress for U.S. historical racial injustices.
