STOP SETTLING FOR THE WRONG Solutions
If giving is our approach to solving the ugly direst issues or highlighting the causes we care about most…
And if we judge our values by the solutions we individually adopt and collectively pursue…
And if we look at the existing solutions we entrust with our future...
Then,WHY DO WE SETTLE FOR THE WRONG SOLUTIONS?...
Shift OUR MindSET on How We Give
HOW DOES OUR PERSPECTIVES ON GIVING SHAPE AVAILABLE SOLUTIONS AND ALTERS HOW WE LIVE?
BY EARNESTLY EVALUATING OUR COLLECTIVE GIVING BEHAVIOR, OUR INDIVIDUAL INFLUENCES OF GIVING, OUR CULTURAL NARRATIVES THAT SUPPORT HOW WE GIVE, AND THE SYSTEMS IN PLACE, WE CAN IDENTIFY OUR IMPLICIT BIASES AND HONESTLY STATE OUR EXPLICIT VALUES IN A WAY THAT IS SUSTAINABLE, AND SCALABLE.
REGAIN CONTROL OF WHAT WE VALUE
HOW DO WE recognize AND SUPPORT our values through appropriate funding and awareness?
IF WE WISH TO BETTER control our own VALUES, we MUST assess the systems that we utilize to support OUR causes and CONSIDER the power of our purchases.
By sourcing better solutions, we can rewrite the cultural narratives that entrench inequality, injustice, and identity.
In the end, SHIFTING OUR MINDSET ON HOW WE PERCEIVE OUR NONPROFIT SECTOR AS AN EFFECTIVE MODALITY OF SUPPORT, WE CAN REGAIN CONTROL OF OUR VALUES AND CREATE ECOSYSTEMS THAT PERPETUATE EXPONENTIAL EMPOWERMENT.
CHANGES IN Approach
REAL POWER EXISTS IN OUR ABILITY TO DISTRIBUTE AND REAL ACCESS TO GIVING IS THE REAL ISSUE OF INEQUALITY. OUR SOLUTIONS SHOULDN’T BE DETERMINED BY FAR OFF AGENCIES, OR DEPENDENT ON WHERE YOU COME FROM. OUR BASIC INSTITUTIONS NEED A VERY DIFFERENT AND MORE PROACTIVE APPROACH.
MISSION
We foster innovation that empowers individual agency and liberates communities to self-determine their own success. By rewriting the cultural narratives that speak over those with no voice and even less opportunity, we shatter the systems that shackle and control how we collectively determine what we value and how we individually support those ideals with funding and awareness.
