Beyond The Veil of Grant making

April 30th | 10AM - 12PM | 1449 S. Michigan Ave 

Grant funding can feel opaque, intimidating, and difficult to navigate—especially for entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders working closest to community impact. In this session,  Stephanie J. Townsell and Kirstin W. Smith, Senior Program Officers at the MIGMIR Fund, pull back the curtain on how funders really think and make decisions.

Drawing from their experience in philanthropy, public policy, and community-centered investment, they’ll share what strengthens—or weakens—an application and what to consider before seeking funding.

Cost: $25/person
