Bridging Ideological Divides in America

Love your place

Co-founders and leaders of Philanthropy Bridging Divides will lead an interactive session discussing how place-based funders and community foundations can be leaders in the national effort to bridge the partisan divide in America today. While Washington is riven with polarized ideological rhetoric, philanthropy has the unique opportunity to provide safe civic space and remind us that while we may have different opinions about some issues, there are many values that we have in common. Attend this session to learn how you can use your role in philanthropy to bridge divides in your community.

Session Designer: Chris Gates, Director, Philanthropy Bridging Divides
