Trust-Based Philanthropy – What is it, and how can we support it
December 11, 2025 | 1:00pm - 2:00pm

Trust-based philanthropy is a growing movement that reimagines the relationship between funders and equity-seeking communities.
Many organizations and communities desire the space to slow down, prioritize relationship-building, and nurture trust. Yet, the current funding landscape is often defined by strict timelines, one-year grants, and rigid reporting requirements.
This webinar will explore how funders can shift their practices to better support equity-seeking organizations. Panelists will share insights, lived experiences, and practical approaches to building funding relationships rooted in trust, equity, and long-term impact.
What you’ll learn:
- The principles of trust-based philanthropy
- How equity-seeking organizations experience current funding structures
- Practical steps funders can take to reduce barriers and foster trust
- Opportunities for reimagining accountability and reporting
