We’re calling the philanthropic sector in.
We believe transformation requires calling people in, not calling them out.
To that end, we work with members and other partners to celebrate diverse identities, make inclusivity an everyday practice and advance equitable opportunity within communities across the Northwest. Read our statement of commitment to DEI.
Together with The Giving Practice, our national consulting partner, we offer a range of diversity, equity and inclusion programs, from one-day trainings and personalized consulting services to multi-year fellowships.
DEI Cohorts
The Giving Practice facilitates cohorts of peer foundation CEOs and trustees to learn together. Through the cohorts, philanthropic leaders explore what diversity, equity and inclusion means to them and discuss ways to embed DEI into their organizations.
Grantmaking with an Equity Lens
Led by seasoned facilitators, this training helps you incorporate equity strategies into your grantmaking. Explore the core principles of racial justice, hear from foundation peers who have implemented specific approaches and dig deeper into practical applications for your organization.
Momentum Fellowship
This two-year fellowship prepares professionals from historically underrepresented communities for successful careers in the philanthropic sector. Fellows work full-time within a foundation, and are supported by coaches, professional development, networking and peer learning opportunities that help them make the most of their fellowship experience.
