Calling all out-of-school and youth development funders: Learn more about investing in and aligning with GFE’s fund
Grantmakers investing in the out-of-school time and youth development spaces are coming together to stand up a new pooled fund at Grantmakers for Education: the Afterschool & Summer Recovery and Opportunity Fund. The fund is enabling grantmakers to respond together to needs articulated by field leaders, with a priority on bolstering the capacity of intermediaries to support providers in recovering and reopening to serve young people, particularly low-income and BIPOC children and youth.
To learn more about investing in the fund and discuss opportunities to make aligned grants with a local/regional focus, please join this funder-only discussion.
Questions about the fund can be directed to Kathleen Traphagen, facilitator of the GFE Out-of-School Time Impact Group.
