Anchors like universities, banks, local organizations, foundations large & small with Baltimore Community Foundation as humble enabler —collaborators making change happen in Baltimore - Shanaysha Sauls #MissionInvest2022

.@DarrenWalker makes the point that racial equity is easy to talk about—it’s harder to act on. To walk the walk, Shanaysha Sauls says that the Baltimore Community Foundation began providing more technical assistance to racially diverse applicants during the application process #MissionInvest2022

It’s critical to engage foundation investment committees in conversation around mission alignment, values & principals that guide ALL of our work, have to holistically build culture of the whole Board - Darren Walker Ford Foundation #MissionInvest2022

Were bringing a divest-invest approach to climate investing, bringing our investing & program people together in the conversation - John Palfrey MacArthur Foundation #MissionInvest2022

We’ve made racial equity and climate transition throughlines for everything we do; they can’t be separated - Tonya Allen McKnight Foundation #MissionInvest2022

We need a “plumbing system”, pathways to get #ClimateChange funding down to the ground, to BIPOC led orgs that know solutions that work - Don Chen Surdna Foundation #MissionInvest2022

Land ownership & stewardship (land banks, land trusts) is a strategy Surdna Foundation is pursuing to mitigate climate refugees / displacement Don Chen #MissionInvest2022

Re #ClimateChange policies, mission investors can fund removal of barriers to deployment: delivery acceleration, amplification, build trust, keep workers & communities at the center - Ali Zaidi Archived The White House #MissionInvest2022

We are designing & managing training programs for results, delivering for workers. In UP Fund workers get wraparound support and training but only repay if they see results. If they don’t earn above a floor they pay nothing - Tracy Palandjian Social Finance #MissionInvest2022
