Grantmakers for Effective Organizations together with North Carolina Network of Grantmakers hosts a full day culture workshop designed for mid- to senior-level leaders who are at the early stages of centering equity within their organizational culture or those who are looking to shift their organizational culture to center equity to better support their values, mission and goals.
Join this webinar to have a conversation about GEO's study to help us understand how we are doing as a field, including trends over time and new areas of inquiry.
Is Grantmaking Getting Smarter? is a national study of philanthropic practice that was done to help us understand how we are doing as a field. The study includes key findings which look at how grantmakers’ approaches to racial equity and culture connect to practice.

Orange County Grantmakers is pleased to welcome Grantmakers for Effective Organizations for their Q3 Member Only Forum. During this presentation, grantmakers will hear the results of their Is Grantmaking Getting Smarter study and learn key findings which look at how grantmakers are supporting nonprofit success through flexible and reliable funding, capacity building, learning and evaluation, collaboration and emerging approaches to racial equity and organizational culture. This presentation will be followed by a discussion among members as to how their individual grantmaking has evolved and changed over the years and how they are reacting to the needs of the community.
Are you a grantmaker interested in learning more about specific tactics, strategies and best practices around race equity? If so, you’ll want to join us for this webinar on July 10, 2019, built on research in Equity in the Center’s “Awake to Woke to Work: Building a Race Equity Culture” publication.
The Johnson Center for Philanthropy is developing a competency model for program officers, which details the competencies that program officers need to be effective in their work. In November 2018, the GEO Grantmaker Guidebook group hosted a call to review and give feedback on a draft of the model, which helped shape the content and approach to developing current version of the model. Continue to help shape the model by learning about work completed since the last call, reviewing a more complete version of the model, indicating competencies that may have been missed, or adding important considerations that enrich the recommendations. Join us for brief presentation by Michael Pratt and Teri Behrens on this work, followed by a rich group discussion to inform the next iteration of the model.
