Many voices in philanthropy are speaking up, some for the first time, about the protests, the killings, and the structural racism behind them. We welcome all-comers and stand in our belief in Black, Indigenous, and communities of color as defenders of democratic ideals. We too are grieving and angry; structural and anti-Black racism are root causes of wealth, health, employment, and education disparities. The enforcement of racist policies is putting Black and Brown lives at the mercy of the pandemic and police brutality’s deadly toll.

NCG’s community of advocates, movement conveners, and dreamers spend most of the year with us learning, collaborating, and working to shift philanthropic practice. We understand that no one aspect of philanthropic practice can be done alone.
Join NCG and your philanthropy peers for a lightly structured conversation over lunch to reflect

statewide, and at the national scale.
At NCG, we believe that funders should take full advantage of every tool in their grantmaking toolbox to advance their systems-change, power-building, and racial equity goals. 501(c)4-aligned funding can accelerate movement building, strengthen our democracy, and advance racial equity.
Join Philanthropy California and Nonprofit Finance Fund for the launch of our Resourcing Resilience Report. As Californians grapple with the escalating impacts of climate change, it is clear that the path towards resilience lies in supporting the communities on the frontline. The Resourcing Resilience Report arrives at a pivotal moment as climate change continues to disproportionately affect vulnerable communities and communities of color—those who often bear the brunt of extreme weather events, extractive industry, and environmental degradation.
