Surprisingly, many fundraisers assume the man in a couple controls charitable decisions, but that is likely incorrect, according to a new study from the Women's Philanthropy. #nonprofit #fundraising #philanthropy pentera.com/blog/womens-in…

Klaxon! New project: to rate grant-making foundations on their #diversity, accountability and transparency. It's unprecedented. We'll rate them without their permission, using only info that is public. We'll publish all our findings.  Next year, we do it again.🧵 #philanthropy

3/ This project is funded by a group of UK grant-making foundations, led by Friends Provident Fdn, @fprovfoundation. They will all be rated - as will others - and they will (obv) have no influence over the #research findings.

5/ This is a rating not a ranking or index. A ranking / index is a relative thing: a quarter of all items are in the top quartile, a quarter are in the 2nd quartile, etc. By contrast, a rating is an absolute measure: everybody can get top marks - or everybody can come bottom.

6/ We'll do this annually for at least several years. We are assessing UK foundations. Yes, we can do it in other countries - if somebody will pay. More information is at giving-evidence.com/2021/05/20/ann… #philanthropy #diversity #charity #foundation #foundations #research #giving
