Written By Trust-Based Philanthropy Project

Trust-based philanthropy encourages funders to partner in a spirit of service to nonprofits, which means thinking holistically about ways to use your power and position to help organizations advance their goals. Providing non-monetary support – such as moral support, thought partnership, introductions to potential partners, and capacity-strengthening – can go a long way towards both reinforcing trust-based relationships and helping grantees advance their work. 

This one-page guide outlines concrete tips and suggestions for ways funders can offer support beyond the check in a way that strengthens their nonprofit partners and their ability to carry out their work effectively.
