Local Learning: Grand Challenge Briefing (Richmond)

Friday, January 24 | 9:00am ET

Over a two-year period, the A Way Home America Grand Challenge will help ten communities, including Richmond, end homelessness for LGBTQ+ Youth and Youth of Color. The Grand Challenge is a problem-solving initiative in several critical approaches: youth collaboration, LGBTQ+ and racial equity, and quality improvement. It aims to set the path to ending homelessness for all youth.  

Throughout the next two years, providers, young people, funders, and other key stakeholders will be working and learning together. Funders hold a unique role in the success of this challenge, whether it be as a convener or as an advocate. As each community gears up for the work ahead, Funders Together and A Way Home America are hosting conversations for funders in Richmond to introduce them to the team of local community members leading this challenge and to discuss the various ways funders can engage in this work. 

Please RSVP below if you are able to attend. We will have coffee and a light breakfast. We look forward to an engaging discussion about how funders can help advance the work happening to prevent and end youth homelessness. 

Please noteThis event is only open to members of Funders Together, private funders, United Ways, and philanthropy-serving organizations. If you have questions about participating, please contact Stephanie Chan, Director of Membership and Programs, at [email protected]
