The New York Community Trust invites funders to a working group for funders to share updates and discuss how immigrant-serving nonprofits are preparing for the new administration. The group meets remotely on Wednesdays, and will continue on a bi-weekly basis as long as members find it useful.
In this regional funder briefing series, GCIR, Four Freedoms Fund, and philanthropic intermediaries across the country are partnering to spotlight the work of creative and powerful organizations that will provide a current state of play in their home states, as well as uplift contemporary needs, strategies, and opportunities for funder support.
