Funders’ Pledge: A Pathway to Anti-Racist Philanthropy
As Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) leaders and deeply committed allies rooted in the communities they serve on the South and West sides of Chicago, members of the Goldin Institute’s Chicago Peace Fellows call on funders to sign, adopt and support the “anti-racism in philanthropy” Funders’ Pledge to rectify the racial inequity that exists, invest in the approaches developed by authentic grassroots leaders, and trust their capacity to manage resources, inspired by the philosophies of The Black Star Project’s founder, Phillip Jackson.
