“Trust in Action”: A Grassroots-Led Resource for Change in Philanthropy

Share

Developed by grassroots leaders worldwide, this innovative resource from the Global Fund for Children sheds light on the funding challenges faced by community-based organizations and offers trust-centered, flexible funding solutions.

Grassroots organisations are the bedrock of positive social change. Their deep understanding of local challenges and opportunities positions them perfectly to drive transformation within their communities. However, traditional funding models often present significant hurdles. Rigid restrictions, limited access to resources, and a lack of operational flexibility can hinder their effectiveness in meeting community needs and fostering long-term change.

The Global Fund for Children‘s innovative resource, “Trust in Action: The Bridge Between Grantmakers and the Grassroots,” tackles these challenges head-on. Available in both French and Spanish, this resource equips community-based organisations (CBOs) with the tools they need to advocate for trust-based partnerships with funders. “Trust in Action” aligns with the growing call for a shift in power dynamics within philanthropy and global development, urging grant makers and international development organisations to embrace a more equitable approach.

Explore “Trust in Action” and discover how you can support community-based organisations. Learn more about fostering trust-based partnerships and adopting flexible funding strategies.
