• Making the Case for Supporting Immigrants in Your Grantmaking: A Messaging Toolkit for Funders

    Virtual

    We know that funders face many challenges when attempting to make the case within their institutions for the value and importance of investing in immigrant communities. We also know that moving money to immigrant-led and immigrant-centered organizations can help foundations advance their strategic priorities, whether they relate to immigration explicitly or not.

    GCIR has developed a new messaging toolkit (which will be released ahead of the webinar) designed to support funders, especially those who are navigating hostile external environments, as they make the case to their leadership or peer communities for the value of supporting immigrants in their grantmaking strategies.

  • SNAP Strategy Funder Working Group: Training and Technical Assistance Opportunities

    Virtual

    Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Funders and Grantmakers In Health are forming a funder Working Group for a coordinated, strategic response to the SNAP cuts in H.R. 1. The Working Group comes as an actionable response to insights shared by field leaders in a SNAP-focused webinar earlier in October.

    Recognizing the far-reaching implications of SNAP for food security, health, and economic equity, this Working Group will serve as an information hub and a strategic coordination space, designed to help funders act quickly, effectively, and in alignment with one another. We will organize three Working Group meetings to start and then assess next steps.

    The second Working Group call will explore how funders can support training and technical assistance for state agencies navigating significant and sudden changes in how SNAP operates, including assessing the factors influencing error rates and technology solutions to reduce them. Tim Shaw, Director of the Benefits Transformation Initiative at the Aspen Institute’s Financial Security Program, will also provide a status update on state action and responses to H.R. 1 requirements.
