Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) remains a major issue, that members of Philanthropy Network Greater Philadelphia, indicate they want to learn more about and work towards. But it's not so simple. DEI means different things to different people. And, strategies to advance DEI are not so clear for many of us.
Arts foundations and nonprofit leaders are increasingly aware of diversity and equity issues in the nonprofit cultural sector. However, despite this awareness, arts funding is getting less equitable, not more. Just 2 percent of all cultural institutions receive nearly 60 percent of all contributed revenue – up 5 percent over a decade. Funding inequities are systemic and local patterns mirror national ones.
GSK, in collaboration with The Philadelphia Foundation and Philanthropy Network, is excited to host this important conversation about Get HYPE Philly!, a collective impact initiative to empower the city’s youth to become leaders for healthy change.
Philanthropy Network's Regional Roundtable series provides community leaders, non profit leadership and people with lived experience with a platform to educate members and other on pressing issues, in our region.
