As we recently honored Indigenous Peoples' Day, we're sharing this powerful illustration from @eloybida (eloybida.com). We’re reminded of the importance of moving beyond symbolic gestures to take meaningful action in support of Indigenous communities 🍂 

In this spirit, we've launched our second fundraiser to benefit the Piscataway Conoy Tribe, whose land we occupy in the DC region, and their nonprofit, Through Piscataway Eyes. In addition to paying an annual land tax, we are matching donations of up to $5K through the end of November in recognition of National Native American Heritage Month.

We challenge you to stand in solidarity with the Piscataway Conoy Tribe ✊ and invite others in your network (particularly those based in the Washington, DC region) to do the same.

For more info, please visit the link in our bio.

The truth is, many people doing racial equity work often lack the support they need from their organization, board, or colleagues. That’s why our cohorts offer more than just strategies to advance equity — as Ericka Hines, Managing Director at EIC, says, we’re also building a real community so you don’t feel alone. Together, we thrive!

Learn More About Us

We envision a future where nonprofit and philanthropic organizations are characterized by a Race Equity Culture™, meaning they implement and advance race equity internally while advocating for and centering it in work externally.

To achieve that future, we challenge colleagues to adopt specific tactics on the levels at which racism operates.
