2024 reflections and learnings

2024

Over the last year, our average grant amount continued to trend back up as we finalized a two-year process of deploying grant increases on the heels of responsive grantmaking during the pandemic. Further, a record 92% of grant dollars were multi-year, reflecting our long-term approach for core grantee partners and their commitment to the community. We also began reimagining the approach with our Strategic Opportunities portfolio with an eye toward more flexibly integrating some of our exploratory grantmaking across our work.


We marked our 10th anniversary as a funder with deep gratitude for all of our nonprofit partners and their unwavering dedication to children and families across the region.
