For more than 12 years, Maryland Philanthropy Network has led a learning agenda around racial equity for our members. Part peer-exchange, part workshop, this program is designed for members to learn from several colleague organizations about their racial equity journeys, reflect on where your organization is in its journey, and unearth insights to take into your own work. The peer exchange will include discussion of building buy-in from the board and navigating differences between staff and board on this issue. We’ll also explore ideas around future MPN activities and what offerings/supports will help move you along your journey.
Maryland Philanthropy Network is proud to support the Maryland Nonprofits 2024 Annual Conference "Unlocking the Power of Nonprofits," a transformative event designed to inspire and empower nonprofit leaders. Over two days, you'll engage with sector experts, participate in insightful presentations, network with peers, and discover solutions to elevate your organization's impact.
