Philanthropy Ohio has an established custom to publish parting thoughts from retiring members. As I conclude 25 years of work at the George Gund Foundation on September 3, it is now my turn to say goodbye.
Philanthropy Ohio’s funder networks offer opportunities for you to interact and connect with other members of the same foundation type to discuss current topics, share learnings, create partnerships and enhance impact. These networks connect you to a community of funders serving in the same roles, who have gone through similar situations and are here to support you.
Governor Mike DeWine announced the Ohio Department of Medicaid’s launch of OhioRISE (Resilience through Integrated Systems and Excellence), Ohio’s first-ever highly specialized behavioral health program for children and youth with the most complex behavioral health needs who are served by Medicaid.
As February / Black History Month comes to a close and March / Women’s History Month dawns, a focus on excellence in leadership is fitting to uplift all that is deserving of philanthropic and social impact investment. Focusing on the struggles of our past has its place – so that we never forget. But highlighting the excellence in our legacies provides a vital and proactive perspective.
Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging are vital components of a just society, and affirmative action measures are necessary to address the systemic barriers that have historically disadvantaged marginalized groups. I encourage all our members to engage in constructive dialogue, educate others about the importance of affirmative action and advocate for policies that promote equity and inclusivity.
One of the many ways you can become more involved as a member in Philanthropy Ohio is by serving on a board committee
Connect with fellow Ohio funders about the challenges and possibilities and identify opportunities to collaborate. Get the mentoring and training you need and be reassured you’re doing things in the best way possible. You have the ability to become the funder you envision and seek to be.
Leading and supporting philanthropic work to center racial equity, we bring training, tools, inspiration and conversations to our members, holding space for peer sharing and cohort learning and expanding to include other marginalized identities and issues.
Elevate your work, grow in your career, exercise your leadership and demonstrate your expertise among your peers. When you join a committee, connect with a peer group or participate in a policy initiative, not only are you giving back to the sector, but you’re also gaining valuable skills and relationships.
