We believe that rapid response investing is revolutionizing the way we put investment dollars to work. And while building our network of Activists and Organizers, we developed a set of core Strategic Pillars , the “What” and “Why”, along with the Objectives we pursue in the course of managing the Foundation. These Five Pillars help us focus on our goals and achieve our strategic initiatives.
Pillar 1
The Funding Gap
Track the need for funding among organizers in impacted communities alongside philanthropy’s ability to fulfill that need through improved financial contributions to organizers.
Pillar 2
Community Participation
Measure the number of residents, stakeholders, and philanthropic representatives learning about social justice or volunteering to make a better social justice ecosystem.
Pillar 3
Regional Social Justice Pipeline
We target local social justice organizations and the relationships with existing neighboring institutions to produce new organizers and activists.
pillar 4
Social Justice Job Index
Our proposed metric to show the health and strength of jobs in the social justice sector as a part of the overall local economy.
Pillar 5
Organizational Connections
We measure collaborations and networking along with operational goals among our social justice organizations.
