From Theory to Practice: How Funders are Living Trust-Based Philanthropy

This is part two of our multi-part webinar series for funders, hosted in collaboration with JustFund.

Hear directly from funders as they share how values like power-sharing, humility, and collaboration show up in everyday decisions, grant management systems, and organizational operations. Participants will explore trust-based philanthropy as an ongoing continuum rather than a one-and-done checklist, and gain ideas for applying these values in ways that fit their own context. The session also offers space to reflect on where your organization is on its trust-based journey — and how to begin, deepen, or evolve your practice.

Speakers:

  • Shaady Salehi, Co-Executive Director, Trust-Based Philanthropy Project (moderator)

  • Molly Judge, Director of Philanthropic Solutions, Magic Cabinet

Attendees will get:

  • Practical insights into what it means to apply trust-based values to practices — and how to adapt the practices for various contexts

  • A better understanding of trust-based philanthropy as a continuum, rather than a one-and-done checklist 

  • Ideas about how to apply trust-based values to grant management systems and operations

  • Opportunities to reflect on your organization’s trust-based philanthropy journey, and opportunities to jumpstart or deepen your own practice 

  • Answers to frequently asked questions about trust-based philanthropy, including maintaining accountability, tracking progress, and navigating challenges along the way
