Equity in Philanthropy: Abolition, Reform, Expansion – Jan 11

Posted by La Salle Nonprofit Center on November 23, 2021

We are excited to bring you this special program, which will explore the past, present, and future of the philanthropic ecosystem and the threads of inequities that continue to plague it. This series includes three distinct yet interconnected sessions that will take you on an exploration of equitable philanthropy. With three diverse and experienced facilitators as your guides, you will consider various aspects of the philanthropic ecosystem. Which aspects are irreparably broken and need to be abolished? Which could benefit from reform? Where is healthy and equitable philanthropy flourishing, and how can these philosophies and practices be shared, expanded, and fostered?

Registration for the full series gives you access to an additional group consulting session and a moderated panel discussion, but you can also register for any of the initial 3 sessions individually.
