About the Event
Join us for an interactive program grounded in the concepts and experience of the Nonprofit-Funder Dialogue Series. Program facilitators will briefly introduce the Series’ goals and outcomes before guiding attendees through the “sustained dialogue” concept, used to facilitate critical conversations during the Series itself. Facilitators will then share resources and materials from the Nonprofit-Funder Dialogue Series sessions and invite attendees to think about the larger implications of the work during brief break-out conversations. The program will conclude with the opportunity for further discussion on relationship- and trust-building among philanthropic entities and communities.
About the Nonprofit-Funder Dialogue Series
Co.act Detroit and the Johnson Center for Philanthropy co-created the Nonprofit-Funder Dialogue Series (with facilitation support from the Eureka Group) to seek out and explore answers to these and other expansive questions in the social sector. The series brought together foundation and nonprofit leaders from diverse Michigan communities to build meaningful, trust-based relationships and explore innovations and solutions for moving more resources to advance communities of color.
The Nonprofit-Funder Dialogue Series was built on the belief that real social change requires nonprofit organizations and foundations to develop deeper, more trusting relationships. The facilitated conversations therefore focused on elevating our field’s shared goals and challenges while nurturing a space where candid — even if uncomfortable — conversation was supported.
Part 1 of this two-part series will take place on Wednesday, September 27, 2023 from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. EDT.
