Webinar: Covid-19 and Racial Inequity in the Greater Washington Nonprofit Sector

Here is the recording from the webinar. Passcode: I!6?T&cm. In addition to the recording, below are new data points that are meant to add to and clarify what was discussed earlier:

  • "Over 50 percent of funders reported that they support efforts to make systems-level change to advance racial equity. We also asked our members how much of their total giving in the region goes toward organizations headed by leaders of color. A third of survey respondents were able to provide this data. Collectively, less than 3 percent of overall giving in the region was reported going to organizations led by leaders of color. Also attached is the report from Washington Regional Association of Grantmakers from last year: 2019 Our Region, Our Giving."
  • "Nearly a third of U.S. nonprofits have reduced head count or suspended operations as a result of COVID-19, a report from the Unemployment Services Trust finds. (Corresponding link to this report.)"
