Black Women Leaders in Philanthropy

Описание: Black women have always been critical to the functioning of communities, organizations, and society. Because of the critical and intersectional lens they bring to how they navigate the world and understanding of what it takes to manifest a society in which we all flourish, we are inspired by the rise in numbers of Black women leaders, particularly in philanthropy. It is also true that we are seeing a number of Black women leave executive roles to pursue their own ventures or other better-aligned opportunities.

In the past, we have made space to talk about #PhilanthropySoWhite and explored the journey of confronting whiteness from the perspectives of white leaders. We are ready to flip the script, to change the tune by centering the voices, experiences, leadership, and liberation dreams of Black women who occupy senior leadership roles in philanthropy.

This is a conversation for everyone and is a space for all who are committed to manifesting a world in which equity and justice are centered– a society in which we all thrive. Join us for a powerful and insightful discussion facilitated by Nellie Mae’s interim President and CEO, Dr. Gislaine N. Ngounou, with Morgan Dawson, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Threshold Philanthropy, Dr. Charmaine Mercer, Chief of Equity and Culture, William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and Dr. Teresa C. Younker, President and CEO, Ms. Foundation for Women as panelists.
