Funders' Committee for Civic Participation

BLACK LIVES MATTER

As a civic participation funder network, we recognize the role and responsibility philanthropy has in either perpetuating or dismantling systems of oppression. We must call on each other to fight white supremacy and support racial justice and equity through civic engagement funding and sharing of power. This includes directly funding and centering BIPOC-led organizations, providing flexibility and extra support for your grantees as they fight for their communities, and funding systems change work.
