Funding Forward 2014 is shaping up to be the best gathering of grantmakers commited to LGBTQ issues yet! Our planning committee is deeply engaged, our members submitted a high volume of thoughtful and innovative session proposals and the local community in Philadelphia is going out of their way to welcome us. Funding Forward 2014 is bound to be a huge success.
(Early Bird Rates end February 14th)
Funding Forward is our time to come together as a philanthropic community to teach, learn and strengthen our network. The detailed agenda for the conference will be released soon, but here are just a few of the highlights:
We're proud to congratulate Aldita Gallardo (@ladycaucau) of @BorealisPhil and fellow Funders board member on her latest op-ed in the @SSIReview! #philanthropy #grantmaking #LGBTQ #transrights

As this week ends, we stand in solidarity with our AAPI community. Thank you, @aapip for sharing "11 Ways Forward This Lunar New Year," an article that includes response resources to support those affected by the tragedy in Monterey Park and ways to heal. https://aapip.org/news/11-ways-forward-this-lunar-new-year/
