Network Building Activities

International Leaders Learning Circle

Virtual

We convene an International Leadership Learning Circle to create a space for our nonprofit partner leaders to share best practices and build community with one another. Our intention is to use this opportunity to listen and support grantees beyond funding.

Convening of ‘2 Blocks’ partners

Cambridge, MA

We supported a series of conversations with Innovators for Purpose, leaders from the schools, universities, Kendall Square corporations and city government, among others to begin imagining how to answer a call-to-action from young people to increase access to resources and opportunities in their community.

Funder Event for Young Man with a Plan

Boston, MA

In collaboration with Young Man with a Plan (YMWAP) we gathered nonprofit and funding leaders to: 

  • Connect with like-minded people interested in creative collaboration

  • Learn about YMWAP and the community they serve - the organization is at an ‘inflection point’

  • Consider new ways funders can support organizations and collaborate with each other

Exchanges with Intermediaries

Local and International

We value our ongoing collaboration with the Social Innovation Forum and MITSolve. These thoughtful and accomplished partners are leading the way towards transformational social impact. Our partnerships with these organizations are deep and multifaceted creating opportunities to build our networks and learn together.

We create opportunities to connect with one another because we know that our partners and their communities hold many of the solutions.

Our network includes our nonprofit and funding partners, community organizations, and relevant resources.
