During the pandemic, when many grantees were forced to operate in crisis mode, College Futures deliberately aimed to foster a sense of care, support, and community, paired with stable and flexible funding. This was the start of a new policy grantmaking strategy that eventually grew to an “ecosystem” of 16 organizations, intentionally designed to advance connections, knowledge, and movement-building across higher education equity. We offer insights to the philanthropic community to strengthen equity-focused movement-building and grantmaking, especially in support of statewide policy and systems change: https://buff.ly/3WzEjuK.

Every quarter, Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation's team works together to distill the most impactful stories to share with our community. Sometimes we have so much content that the website can barely keep up. When I first started in the nonprofit sector as a storyteller, the credo was "no one cares about the sausage making." With so many places to contribute your resources and a greater desire to see behind the curtain, we have a new challenge as nonprofit communications experts. The sector and our stakeholders want more than a report out on numbers and outcomes. Some things our stakeholders want to undertand include: • *how* and *why* we make the choices we make, and how we continue to learn and adapt to do things better (see the scholarships story by Dana Crary, TTCF Community Impact Manager), • the intentional partnerships that help funders realize our values statements instead of checking DEI boxes for PR (see the Washoe grant story), and • strategies that help donors make the most of every dollar for greater impact in the places that they care about (see the Philanthropies section and our $10 million matching grant). This impact report shares a lot more than all of that, and I am proud to be part of the team of staff, Board, partners, and donors who make this work possible and hold ourselves accountable to our community. Please enjoy. #communications #nonprofitcommunications #philanthropy #communityfoundation

SATURDAY MORNING (AUGUST 3RD) at 8:30 AM our amazing Who I Am Foundation volunteers in #Phoenix will be cleaning up the community once again! In honor of Kenny "Fanatic" Hogan, for this Community Clean-Up, our volunteers will be meeting up in the parking lot of Rodriguez Boxing Club, located at 1350 W Roosevelt St Phoenix, AZ 85007 NO OPEN-TOED SHOES Cleaning up loose trash is one of the best ways to pitch in for your community and the environment. Volunteering as a means to help conserve and protect the environment has a lot of upsides. Of course, the first is that you’ll be taking care of our planet, and it badly needs a little love given the myriad ways in which we’ve become adept at destroying it. But beyond that, volunteering for a cause you care about is a great way to meet like-minded people, make friends, and pull yourself out of the blues that sometimes accompany caring a lot about something important – especially if you feel alone in your endeavors. None of us like the sight of litter. Litter spoils the look of where we live but that’s not the only reason for picking up litter. There are a number of benefits from picking up litter that you may not have considered before. Volunteer-led projects such as these are one of the quickest, simplest, and least expensive ways to inspire more community spirit and civic action. A visually appealing community increases property values, attracts businesses, and improves the neighborhood's image. Beauty is one of the three most influential factors in community attachment, which means loyalty, to your particular town or city. Some research even shows that a nice-looking neighborhood promotes good behavior. Join us in keeping the community clean! For more information: https://lnkd.in/gg_x58uR #TeamWhoIAm_Phoenix
