There's so much more to see tomorrow from @rsmith1892 and @TraceChen at #FluxxCon2022!
So much excitement following this morning's #FluxxCon2022 session where @shaadys, Emma at Wildcard Giving, and @rvans talked about how our team built @TrustBasedPhil practices into @fluxxlabs! We are looking forward to sharing more at tomorrow's sessions
So dreamy.
I got this email from a funder who gave automatic increases to their grantees to adjust for inflation. Thank you! 🥰
Funders: inflation has been brutal on nonprofits. Please increase your current and future grants to account for it.
ALT I'm writing to say THANK YOU for posting about the effects of inflation on nonprofits in April. I took your advice to heart, and did some additional research about the extent of inflation in our county, and then provided my organization's grantees a flat increase of 10% of their original grant amount for any active grants that were budgeted for prior to Q1 of this year. Our grantees were so pleasantly surprised to get emails from me informing them of the increase (with no nothing they had to do on their end -- no additional budgets or reporting requirements).
Hope you will follow along and share your thoughts!
As June comes to an end, @rvans provides reflections on the changes we are experiencing in our country while our team busts myths around advocacy grants and shares tips & tricks to streamline your grantmaking.

Appreciate @mellemelb sharing advice she received to "be willing to risk my privilege as a funder." Echos this @ProfessorCrunk quote that I often reflect upon: “the hardest part about white privilege is that you actually then have to give something up.” #PEAK2022online

While there's much bigger news @CandidDotOrg today, (Congrats, @annmei!), I'm also rather excited to see @PackardFdn using the GuideStar nonprofit profile to collect demographic data. Thanks for stepping up & encouraging peer fdns to do the same! blog.candid.org/post/in-conv…
Really interested to see the details on the 39% of overlap of the #100Forms100Days from @Grant_Advisor @tagtechorg. Foundations are ready to change - this data analysis is the much needed evidence to make the case to foundation staff and leadership!
Come join our 1892 consulting team as a Grants Management Consultant! 1892consulting.com/careers

Anything opaque about working with foundations you wish you understood?
Things you wish you knew before you started working in philanthropy?
Other ideas you want me to opine on?
I'm gearing up to write another series of essays–your queries may feature in a future essay!
I hope you will join us to celebrate @PEAKgrantmaking's 25th Anniversary with this stellar CEO Panel: Grants Professionals as Change Agents for Operationalizing Equity peakgrantmaking.org/event/gr…
Finally got around to reading this. So many good points about how to become an accountable grantmaker. My favorite quotes are below.

"You can start small by increasing flexibility for grantees around deadlines and reporting to prioritize what you can learn through deeper relationships with them."
So many great points here to reflect upon as you strive to become an accountable grantmaker. Thank you for writing this important piece, @es_campanita.
