San Francisco, CA | Northern California Grantmakers

Funders Together is excited to co-sponsor this event hosted by Northern California Grantmakers.

Join Funders Together and Northern California Grantmakers on November 10th for a unique, in-person conversation with racial justice leader and Funders Together CEO Amanda Andere about the pursuit of housing justice in the Bay area. She’ll lead a conversation around the Funders Together to End Homelessness’ new strategic framework - which offers a definition of housing justice to reframe the work of ending homelessness in both theoretical and practical ways.

​We’ll explore how philanthropy can work to disrupt oppressive systems that cause people to lose their housing in the first place, even as we attend to the immediate crisis of people living without homes.
