Thrive Cohort Engages Emerging Nonprofit Leaders
|
The Community Foundation is proud to announce the beginning of the Thrive Cohort, a new partnership with five emerging Black and Brown leaders. For the past few years, the Community Foundation has been actively discussing new ways to support emerging nonprofit organizations. At the same time, our staff has also been looking for ways to build racial equity through its work to support nonprofits. Within the challenges of 2020, an opportunity to combine the two efforts emerged. Find out about this effort and more news in the latest newsletter here.
