We’re thrilled to present our recent and engaging webinar, a deep dive into community-centric philanthropy and its transformative potential.

Immense gratitude to our speakers for their precious gift of time and lived experience knowledge:

• Chimwemwe A. Fabiano from Akina Mama wa Afrika
• Aminata Kamara from Purposeful
• Robert White from TILITONSE FOUNDATION

Key Takeaways:

• Shifting Focus: the importance of shifting the focus of philanthropy toward people and their needs, rather than rigid structures and log frames.

• Philanthropy Reimagined: Shifting focus towards people’s needs, documenting successes, and learning from mistakes while creating a responsive ecosystem that is community-driven.

• Empowering Partnerships: Spotlighting the significance of equitable, culturally sensitive partnerships with philanthropic donors, placing people at the forefront.

•Dispelling the Myth of External Expertise: Recognising that communities are the experts of their problems; there is no such thing as ‘external expertise’.

Let’s continue championing community-driven approaches and inclusive philanthropy aligned with real people’s needs.
