Equity & Grantmaking Learning Group Funder Meetup: Board Members’ Roles in Equitable Grantmaking

Grantmakers for Education

Virtual

January 25, 2:00-3:30 pm ET

Board Members' Roles in Equitable Grantmaking: A Conversation with the Raikes Foundation

Many foundations have committed to shifting grantmaking practice and strategy to center equity. What this looks like varies from foundation to foundation, and the level of engagement from foundation board members and trustees in this work also varies. 

Members are invited to join the Equity & Grantmaking Learning Group to hear from Tricia Raikes, trustee of the Raikes Foundation, and Dennis Quirin, executive director of the Raikes Foundation, as they reflect together on how they personally and collectively have engaged alongside their board and staff on how to live out their commitments to equity and how they’ve shifted grantmaking practice. 

In this funder meetup, participants will have time to engage with peer funders to reflect and apply insights to their own work.

This session is for funders only; EdFunders membership required
