Maryland Community Foundation Association Leadership and COVID-19 Response

Maryland Community Foundation Association Leadership and COVID-19 Response

Tuesday, April 07, 2020, 1:00 - 2:30 PM

Maryland’s community foundations understand the full lifecycle of a robust crisis response—from deploying immediate relief aid to recovery. As expert place-based givers, our community foundations have the long-term relationships needed to identify local needs, build trust with community changemakers, and deploy resources quickly and strategically.   

During this video call, leadership from the Maryland Community Foundations Association (MCFA) will discuss how they are coordinating their localized donor communities and share best practices around efforts to: 

  • Convene funders 

  • Develop collaborative funds 

  • Engage in advocacy work at the city or state level to support nonprofit grantees 

  • Adapt grantmaking practices in any way 

  • Provide operational support to grantees 

  • Deploy rapid response funding 

  • Work to center equity in funder actions
