Our Funders

Our funders are a diverse group of grantmakers committed to making philanthropy better through collaborative efforts that build and promote community around listening and feedback. We believe foundations are most effective — and can make the most difference in the world — when their decisions are informed by the insights of nonprofits and the people and communities most harmed by the systems and structures philanthropy is seeking to change.
