What is Giving Compass?
We connect donors to learning resources and ways to support community-led solutions. Learn more about us.
Grantmakers have an opportunity to examine their grantmaking process and consider what changes could help increase access to funding for the communities experiencing the most significant inequities.
We asked our clients about their work in the areas of equity, inclusion, and justice (EIJ) and were truly inspired by their responses. Find actionable ideas for your own organization by reading about adjustments that several organizations leading change across very different communities have made to support EIJ.
