About
Nonprofits and community partners are operating under increasing strain—from funding uncertainty and rising demand to political scrutiny and public pressure. Many are being asked to do more with less, while navigating a more complex and, at times, more fragile operating environment.
In this roundtable, NationSwell will convene corporate impact and philanthropy leaders to explore how funders can better support their grantees and partners in this moment. We’ll discuss how funding strategies, capacity-building efforts, and partnership models may need to evolve to meet new realities—while balancing internal expectations for accountability and results.
Join peers for a candid conversation on what responsible, responsive partnership looks like today, and how funders can show up in ways that strengthen the organizations they rely on to deliver impact.
To encourage open and candid discussion, this event follows the Chatham House Rule – attendees may share insights from the conversation but cannot attribute statements to specific individuals or organizations. This ensures a trusted space for thoughtful dialogue and deeper insights.
NationSwell’s events and experiences are designed to bring together diverse, purpose-driven leaders and organizations for learning, inspiration, relationship-building, and societal impact.
