WEBINAR: Inequities in the Funding Gap

Resources

Inequities in the funding gap

It’s widely understood that traditional grant funding falls short when it comes to covering nonprofits’ real operating costs. But recent discussions about the gap in funding are incomplete if they ignore the systemic inequities that compound this sector-wide under-funding, particularly for nonprofit leaders of color. 

During Pro Bono Week 2020, Lindsay Firestone Gruber (President & CEO, Taproot Foundation) joined guests Richard Brown (Vice President, Philanthropy, American Express), Sherry Green (Founder & CEO, Building Families Together), and Dawnn Leary (Senior Community Investment Officer, Greater Washington Community Foundation) for a webinar exploring how pro bono can be used to help counterbalance these inequities by giving nonprofit leaders of color access to the kind of professional-grade services that can help their organizations thrive. 

During this webinar recording, we:

  • Examine trends in philanthropy that perpetuate existing systemic inequities 
  • Build an understanding of how pro bono can change the trajectory of under-resourced organizations and leaders 
  • Explore examples of how foundations can offer open access to pro bono 
  • Learn from powerful stories of how nonprofit leaders have maximized pro bono 
 

When you’re done create an account on Taproot Plus and find a #SkilledVolunteer to help your nonprofit find funding!
