October Member Meeting — Trust and Fortify: A Funder’s Playbook for Grantee Resilience

At the intersection of a shrinking safety net, a softening economy, and challenges to civil society, the Inland Empire’s nonprofit sector is being called upon to do more with more constraints, while also preparing for an uncertain future. Parameters of discourse and strategy are shifting, and our nonprofit community partners are on the front lines of navigating this unfolding new reality. 

In this pivotal moment, the role of philanthropy must also evolve. How do we move beyond rapid response or programmatic funding to become proactive partners in building a resilient nonprofit sector for our region? How do we equip our grantees to not only be first responders to immediate needs but also the long-term builders of civic muscle for a thriving region? 

Join your fellow funders for a critical and confidential conversation on turning trust into tangible resilience. You will come away with practical, actionable strategies for investing in the core infrastructure, financial health, and collaborative power our partners need to lead our community forward with strength.

As a “Learning Meeting,” this discussion will be offered in a hybrid format with the option to attend either in-person or on Zoom. The business portion of our meeting will be from 10am –12pm, with an optional lunch to follow.
