With so many complex social and political forces impacting philanthropy and the third sector today, it’s more important than ever for social justice fundraisers of every stripe to find purpose and meaning in their toil. The Grassroots Institute for Fundraising Training (GIFT) suggests that the distinction between donor and recipient is fleeting and that the transformational power of philanthropy lies in discovering and sharing our inner fundraiser with the world around us. Join us for this engaging webinar as we explore GIFT’s work to cultivate intention, craft, and pride in the role of the fundraiser as part of a broader effort to redefine philanthropy and help construct a shared vision of resource mobilization across the sector. We’ll learn about GIFT’s programs, in particular the biennial Money for Our Movements: A Social Justice Fundraising Conference, hear about impact from partners who’ve experienced GIFT’s transformative programming, and consider some strategic philanthropic responses to current trends in the sector.

Grounding Beliefs
✓ Giving and sharing are universal human impulses for creating and
sustaining culture and community.
✓ At its root, giving is grounded in hope, faith, and love.
✓ One important way we express our values in a democracy is by
supporting the organizations and causes we care about.
✓ Philanthropy at its best is a creative expression of that part of us that
cares about and believes in the potential for change.
✓ The most effective philanthropy joins your interests and experiences
with current needs and seeks desired outcomes for the common good.
✓ Inspired giving ideas and solutions come from all generations and people
of all walks of life. Community and family input in our planning makes for
better giving.
✓ Inspired philanthropy and service have transforming powers for all --
givers and receivers.

31. Living Learning Resource Ecosystem
Networked Social Movements need to be resourced in new ways:
■ Networked movements require a shift from foundation-centered
funding to a broader conceptualization of resources
■ We call this broader approach a living resource system to recognize
the complex range of resources that need to be identified, linked,
moved and in some case restructured to support the dynamic nature
of networked movements
■ This approach recognizes that everyone has access to resources and
can help move those resources to places where they are needed. The
more people see themselves as resource movers, the more
transformative movements can become.
