Funder listening to shift power
Fund for Shared Insight is a national funder collaborative seeking to improve philanthropy by centering the people and communities at the heart of our work.
Our work is supported by leading grantmakers committed to listening well, responding to what they hear, and shifting and sharing power with those impacted by systemic racism and other structural inequities.
