With a recession looming, sponsorship dollars aren't flowing as freely as in the past. In fact, many organizations are experiencing a decline in event revenue and some a reporting a reduction in member dues, according the 2022 State of the Nonprofit Sector Report. As a result, many PSOs are looking beyond event, grant, and membership dues to explore sponsorship relationships.

Perhaps foundations in your own network have said it: "We don't fund immigration." This damaging, all-too-common phrase in philanthropy masks an important truth: migrant justice is racial justice. And without funding the power and dignity that immigrants and refugees so often lead, funders are missing out on a crucial opportunity to advance equity, support families, and build community in their own backyard.

Join Funders Concerned About AIDS (FCAA) as we discuss ways to collect and analyze data as PSO's and explore how we can move beyond the numbers to create meaningful tools for philanthropic advocacy.

Pre-registration is required to attend and is limited to 16 guests.

Can you imagine a robust social service sector without the 350,000 congregations and 228,000 faith-inspired organizations that support America's food banks, refugee resettlement and housing programs? How might voting access diminish without the 12,875 houses of worship that serve as polling places? Can you imagine civil rights advocacy-historically and today-without the leadership of the Black Church and interfaith clergy?

With all that our world has experienced in the past few years, from shifts in organizational structures to virtual work, stresses on family and community health, and a philanthropic sector reckoning with racial justice, it is more critical than ever to hold on to good people and attract top talent to face the challenges and opportunities of today. Organizational sustainability is rooted in a strong team, and re-thinking what needs to be in place to support this is paramount to your organization's success. We are nothing without our people.

Past and present systems and policies have hindered communities of color from fully collaborating on initiatives to eradicate the social disparities we all face. And knowing that there is no definitive demarcation between our identities and communities, e.g., people are both Black and Latinx, and people are also Latinx and Native American, etc. Understanding each other's history is the first step - but how do we apply that historical lens to inform future work?
