What is Fourth Generation?
Fourth Generation is an exciting and engaged group that comes together in a hands-on experience to reimagine philanthropy. Members center equity in the conversation as we learn about grantmaking and pool our resources to make a much bigger difference in the community than we could alone.
We hear from inspiring speakers, explore personal values, engage in thoughtful activities and discussions, and combine our time and money to explore and support organizations that are making real change in our community.
Our efforts, discussion, and collective gift transform into community power, personal growth, and social advocacy.
Collectively we can amplify our impact!
Fourth Generation is at its best when there is a diversity of experiences and perspectives in the room. Here are ways you can get involved:
- RSVP and attend ONE of the Kick-Off Events: In-person | here or Virtual | Sept. 22
- Invite your friends, coworkers, and family members to join Fourth Generation.
- Share about Fourth Gen through social media.
Can’t join but still want to support Fourth Generation’s work? Donate to our fund!
Last Year’s Mental Health Justice Grantees
Our topic of Mental Health Justice hit home for many of our members last year. We were able to grant $50,000 in unrestricted funds to five grantees focusing on Mental Health Justice. These grantees are working in a variety of ways to make mental health accessible for different communities and cultures.
We look forward to seeing you!
