For nearly a decade, I’ve harnessed womxn’s collective giving to challenge the status quo and drive systemic change in Chicago. With a dedicated community of givers and colleagues, we strove to transform philanthropy to champion equity and amplify voices of the oppressed. Partnering with Jessyca Dudley, Founder + CEO of Bold Ventures, we created spaces to empower giving circle members to promote equitable funding and dismantle power imbalances in funding relationships.
In my role with All Together Bold (ATB), I will contribute monthly articles that focus on elevating approaches and key themes within ATB and the larger philanthropic field, tools and resources to assist others in their implementation efforts, and/or spotlight individuals and initiatives dedicated to advancing racial justice through philanthropy.
