What happens when a group of funders come together with the belief that the grant application process should be simpler and less burdensome for grant seekers?
Funding and supporting nonprofit resilience is a key component in sustaining our nonprofit ecosystem. How can lean funders magnify their capacity building work to strengthen their nonprofit partners?
The tax code is one of the largest tools federal, state, and local governments can use to provide families with economic security and wealth-building opportunities. Yet the tax code systematically disadvantages women, people of color, immigrants, and low-income families. On behalf of Blue Shield of California Foundation, the Tax Equity Funders Network, Northern California Grantmakers, the Asset Funders Network, and the League of California Community Foundations, we invite you to the second, three-part virtual learning and discussion series for California funders on improving economic security, wealth- building opportunities, and equity for low-income Californians through the tax code.

A radically conservative Supreme Court has shaken the country by stripping away long-settled rights and overturning legal precedent. This didn’t happen overnight. What is happening is the result of a decades-long campaign by the conservative legal movement to build a well-resourced network of lawyers, law professors, and judges. And now they are reaping the fruits of their labor. Can the conservative legal movement be stopped?
Since the start of the pandemic, we have observed several transitions among foundation CEOs. These transitions have come about in a number of different ways. A significant number of CEOs retired from their positions (and a few have been dragged back into the fold). Some transitions have occurred because of new (or renewed) foundation missions which necessitated changes in organizational structure. And others have come about due to the natural evolution of careers, interests, and opportunities. But whatever the case, understanding what these transitions are like for the leaders— current and former—is instructive to both the field and the larger community.
