This month’s encounter will focus on our recently-released 2021 Annual Report, “Sustaining Life, Building Power”.1 We will share highlights from the report — including radical advancements in food sovereignty and global grassroots feminisms that we’ve been honored to accompany. We will also update you on our momentum over the last year as a movement support organization. We’ve been hard at work advancing the praxis of Solidarity Philanthropy — shifting donor and philanthropic spaces to treat social movements as equal partners, and leaders, on the road to global justice. Lastly, we'll share some of the latest work we've been excited to move forward in 2022 — and how you’ve played such crucial roles in that! All our supporters, allies, and friends are welcome, as well as anyone interested in learning more about our work and becoming more deeply involved in our efforts to support grassroots social movements across the globe. We look forward to seeing you! In solidarity, |
