We Are For Good

It’s time to reimagine the funder/nonprofit relationship. We’re putting a flag in the ground to talk about how to evolve relationships and processes and make the grantee/funder relationship as symbiotic, empowering (and simple!) for all. Joining us is Hillary Fulton, Founder and principal of Hopeful Consulting. She’s bringing her expertise from the nearly two decades she spent with one of the country’s largest health funders, the Colorado Health Foundation. We’re talking about how we can work together more seamlessly, how to have more open conversations, and what grantees and funders can both do to reimagine the way we chase impact - together. This is a don’t-miss episode for any nonprofit org looking to strengthen their relationships with funders🤝

💡Learn

  • How to find value alignment with funders
  • What’s happening on the inside of foundations
  • A funder’s perspective on working with nonprofits
