Participatory grantmaking (PGM) is an approach to bridging the gap between grantmakers and those they serve, by including and/or empowering the people affected by funding decisions to participate in the decision-making. Join us for an engaging conversation with Kim Newstadt, Director of Research & Learning at the Jewish Foundation of Cincinnati, Aaron Shield, community memberfrom the Reflect Cincy Committee, and Aleeza Lubin, Managing Director, Program Operations at UpStart, about how they have put the principles of PGM into practice in their grantmaking. We will also learn some key takeaways for grantmakers and grantseekers who are interested in exploring this new model.
