#participatory-grantmaking

Participatory grantmaking may be a new trend in philanthropy, but community-driven giving practices have been around since the beginning of time. These practices provide valuable lessons for philanthropy, particularly from those historically marginalized in it.

In 2023, TBF built the Safety Net Grants program, a participatory grantmaking practice that supports organizations addressing essential needs of marginalized communities.
