Beyond the Grant: Building a Diverse, Community-Rooted Funding Strategy

Workshop: Advocacy and Community Leadership Series

Nonprofits face increasing competition for limited funding and greater uncertainty as government and foundation priorities change. This interactive workshop helps nonprofit leaders explore four complementary funding approaches—foundations, philanthropy, earned income, and community-rooted funding—and identify practical ways to reduce dependence on a single source.

Participants will examine each funding model, consider its opportunities and limitations, assess their organization’s funding concentration risk, and begin developing a more sustainable and values-aligned funding strategy.

Tuesday, September 15 | 2:00 - 3:30 pm ET on Zoom
