Philanthropy’s constructive critics, financial activists, and virtually all nonprofits have long argued for a dramatic increase in unrestricted grantmaking. Yet grants untethered from funder restrictions and requirements remain relatively rare. As a result, funding is usually earmarked for things like new or specific programs rather than covering essential costs related to retaining talent, upgrading technology, pursuing innovation, or engaging with communities to define needs and solutions. https://ssir.org/articles/entry/unrestricted-funding-barriers submitted by /u/NonprofitGorgon [visit ..read more

The roles of intermediary organizations are often opaque to those outside of them—funders and grantees alike. With only a handful of published articles describing their methods and impact, there are significant knowledge gaps about how and why these models exist, let alone what they could be called. https://ssir.org/articles/entry/movement-accountable-intermediaries-philanthropy submitted by /u/NonprofitGorgon [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey guys I’m looking at setting up a online community/social network that helps autistic people share common interests, find friends, and help each other through their struggles. If anyone knows funding I can apply for in the uk, Ireland, or internationally I would greatly appreciate it. Also if you want to get involved yourself or know someone who would benefit please dm me. We’re also looking for this to be made by autistic people so all people are welcome to come have a chat an make friends. submitted by /u/Apprehensive-Gas31 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I was recently offered $1000 to create two sponsored posts on TikTok for a company that should not be named. I deeply want to use that money to do as much good as possible, preferably in the area of helping people that are homeless- a cause that I deeply care about. What is the most effective way to use $1000 to help homeless people? Go on the street and give $1000 worth of meals to the homeless? Pay for one person's rent for a month? Donate to a certain charity? What would you advise? :) submitted by /u/11JL [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I'm writing a novel where I want one of the side characters to be a philanthropist of some kind (which plays into her generous and kind personality), but I'm struggling to develop her career. Would anyone mind giving some advice on realistic careers and/or causes a late-30's woman could be involved in that meet the following (fictional) requirements: Flexible time off/work from home.

Ideas relevant for a mixed-r ..read more
