SUMMARY:COSPONSORED WEBINAR: Making the Case for Supporting Immigrants in Your Grantmaking: A Messaging Toolkit for Funders
DESCRIPTION:We know that funders face many challenges when attempting to make the case within their institutions for the value and importance of investing in immigrant communities. We also know that moving money to immigrant-led and immigrant-centered organizations can help foundations advance their strategic priorities\, whether they relate to immigration explicitly or not. \nGCIR has developed a new messaging toolkit (which will be released ahead of the webinar) designed to support funders\, especially those who are navigating hostile external environments\, as they make the case to their leadership or peer communities for the value of supporting immigrants in their grantmaking strategies. \nJoin GCIR staff for a strategy session in which we will: \n\nShare compelling talking points linked to universal values and shared priorities.\nAddress common concerns foundation leaders may raise.\nOffer concrete guidance on how to bring these messages into everyday philanthropic practice.\n\nAt the end of the session\, we will have time to explore strategies for using these tools and for participants to share their experiences with making the case for supporting immigrant communities. \nWho may attend: Staff and board members of foundations\, corporate-giving programs\, philanthropic consultancies\, affinity groups\, and invited governmental grantmaking agencies. \nPlease register by November 19\, 2025\, 8:00 pm: https://www.gcir.org/programs/making-case-supporting-immigrants-your-grantmaking-messaging-toolkit-funders
