Join your peers for a virtual retreat on supporting youth grantmakers and family members within your family and foundation. We will spend time on the following areas:

  • Timely Peer Connections: How has your foundation changed plans in 2020 and 2021? Are you working more with your youth grantmakers or cancelling some plans due to remote learning fatigue?
  • Race and Equity: Join Tiffany Kelly and Karen Weatherford about principles and practices for engaging youth in learning and conversations about structure and systematic racism. This will be an opportunity and example of learning in real time that has worked with young people on Zoom.
  • Case Study: Join the Roy and Patricia Disney Family Foundation and the Andrus Family Fund for case studies about how they are preparing youth across an arc of learning from youth grantmaking to board leadership. Featuring Shawn Escoffery and Kaitlin Miles.
