Trust-Based Blog
Reimagining philanthropy begins with learning out loud.
By sharing ideas, with curiosity and humility, the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project blog features trust-based grantmakers who talk about their own lessons, questions, and aha-moments along their power-sharing journeys.
Using Your Voice and Influence to Complement Your Grantmaking
Funders can use their voice and influence to amplify their grantmkaing, something that is particularly important as nonprofits face a dearth of funds. From signing pledges to signal solidarity and take action to bold peer-to-peer calls to action and transparent communication, family philanthropy is using its voice to meet the moment.
Building Toward, For, and Beyond This Moment
From 2020 to 2024, the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project, alongside our wonderful network of partners and allies, took trust-based philanthropy from a concept to a movement. Now, we are building upon that momentum — tapping into our people power and relationships to mobilize a collective commitment for trust-based action.

Funders, now is the time to do everything within your power to move in solidarity with nonprofits, mobilize money, and nurture possibility.
