Shift Philanthropy for Good

LISTEN. RESPOND. BUILD POWER TOGETHER.

Listening drives change.

Too often, philanthropy is isolated and disconnected from the people it claims to support. Exercising power over, not power with. Missing out on crucial insights and perspectives. Reinforcing unjust systems and unbalanced power dynamics.

Listen to Community calls on funders to change how they work. To build real relationships grounded in listening, so that people can have a meaningful voice in decisions that affect them.

A growing number of foundations are embracing the opportunity to increase their impact by listening, responding, and shifting power to impacted communities. As a resource and engagement hub for funders, Listen to Community seeks to accelerate that change.
