Storytelling for a more just world&nbsp;
At Headwaters, we know the power of storytelling - sharing a vision of a better, more just world is the foundation of our work. It's the core of our mission, and it's what drives many of our grantees' work toward collective liberation.&nbsp;
Headwaters is the story of a new vision for philanthropy. So, we are committed to listening to our community, sharing their stories, and building a robust vision of what a more just world looks like today, in our movements for justice.&nbsp;
If you haven&rsquo;t already, we invite you to explore our
Donor Stories<[link removed]> and
Grantee Stories<[link removed]> projects, where we highlight the powerful donors and organizers who are part of the Headwaters community.&nbsp;&nbsp;
We hope that, by reading and sharing these stories, you take away a bit about HFJ's vision, how we do our work, and how our incredible donors and grantees are building power every day.&nbsp;
