#FundingFrontlineImpact With Nick Grono, CEO of The Freedom Fund
Rachel Stephenson Sheff speaks with Nick Grono, CEO of The Freedom Fund, all about their new resource for donors and philanthropic advisors: #FundingFrontlineImpact (www.fundingfrontlineimpact.org).
I.G. was thrilled to work with the Freedom Fund to create this resource, which shares advice, stories and tools to help donors of all kinds on their own frontline grantmaking journeys - no matter the cause or geography. Rachel & Nick discuss:
🟡 The importance of funding frontline organisations (and what this term actually means).
🟡 Why The Freedom Fund wanted to create this resource.
🟡 Why funders being transparent in their grant-making processes is necessary - and radical.
🟡 Why sharing the specifics of how you operate as a funder is the most universally helpful thing you can do.
🟡 Why we need to lean into the nuance of what trust-based philanthropy can look like in practice.
🟡 Nick's upcoming book on non-profit leadership.
