Join Maryland Philanthropy Network for an update from the City of Baltimore about the impacts of recent federal policy decisions on the administration. The presentation will include an update of the city budget. Speakers include: Alexandra Smith, Chief of Partnership and Philanthropic Strategy; Shamiah Kerney, Deputy City Administrator; Laura Larsen, Budget Director; and Ashley Meyer, Director of Grants Management Office.
Public budgets are one of the most important policy instruments of our government. They are moral documents that reflect our values and priorities through decisions on how to tax residents and businesses and spend those collective resources. These decisions impact what families have to spend on basic needs and invest in their future, define the size of the government and its role in the national economy, and affect the lives of all Americans. Join Maryland Philanthropy Network for a special screening and discussion to learn about and discuss why federal and state budget and tax work matters to national, state, and local philanthropy.

This is a call to action – 988 is not just a phone number – it is a proactive resource for people reaching out for help.
