Gender Justice’s Post

From the article: “Nonprofits Are Vulnerable - The legal and political landscape to defend and protect diversity and inclusion is fraught and uncertain. It’s clear that any organization fighting for equity and justice risks being targeted. Nonprofits are especially vulnerable.” #Nonprofits #Philanthropy #AffirmativeAction

Minorities comprise 10-20% of the global population in today’s multi-ethnic, multi-national societies. However, they often face serious threats, discrimination, and racism. Therefore, it is crucial to protect the rights of minorities worldwide. Fortunately, nonprofit organizations work to advance minority rights and guarantee their fair representation. So we had to ask: What are the best charities that fight for minorities? 👇 https://lnkd.in/g3BnAgRB #charitysupport #minorities #minoritysupport #fairchance #representationmatters Latino Community Foundation, The Sentencing Project, United We Dream, Asian Americans Advancing Justice, Southern Poverty Law Center, Center for Constitutional Rights, Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund, National Urban League, Black Girls CODE

I am where I am today, because other women shared their knowledge and expertise freely. There's nothing more inspiring that women supporting women, because we know it's not a competition. There's room for us all to be successful. I carry a piece of each female mentor with me. Jenny Amory, taught me to negotiate prices and leverage nonprofit discounts. Kathryn A. (Katie) Wheeler taught me how to preserve authors' voices while editing. Katie Bayerl taught me how to apply a DBIE lens to my writing. Namrata Patel taught me to invest in my teams' present and futures and to make safe space for mistakes. Beth Bryant taught me how to refine my data analysis and projections. Laurie Heller taught me how to design within brand standards. Cassidy Leighton taught me so much about email accessibility. Tasha Booker M.ED taught me how to navigate the politics of organizations and leadership. To find myself now at the Trustees, surrounded by this talented sisterhood, is such a blessing.

It's #GivingTuesday! If you're still looking for places to contribute, we'd like to reintroduce you to Naeva. We're mobilizing Indigenous voters *where they are* to fight for a just transition, nation-leading education, access to the ballot, and more. Just this year, we: 🗳️ Passed the first Native American Voting Rights Act in the country 🌌 Headed to Capitol Hill to defend Chaco Canyon ⚡ Mobilized communities in Dinétah to create clean energy infrastructure 🎒 Expanded programming for youth during the summer 🤝🏽 Established a Native Civic Engagement Table for Tribal leaders and community champions to work together In 2024, we plan to hire more staff, take on more issues facing Indigenous communities in New Mexico, and unveil a first-of-its-kind community center for Native communities to learn, organize, and celebrate. Even as Indigenous communities are making waves in legislative chambers, in film and television, and in the streets, only 0.4% of all philanthropic dollars go to Native-serving organizations. Help us build Native power today at naeva.org/donate.

According to a YOUNG BLACK & GIVING BACK INSTITUTE Report, a majority of Black-led and Black-benefitting nonprofits are led by Black women. Most of these organizations survive on operating budgets of less than $500,000, with a third surviving on just $30,000. This #InternationalWomensDay, we honor the commitment, dedication, and sacrifices of Black women. For centuries, they have led, organized, and mobilized to help their communities thrive despite tough challenges and systemic injustices. Philanthropy needs to do better – less than 2% of all giving in the U.S. goes toward women and girls.

🎉 🎉 This investment from MacKenzie Scott honors the fight for justice of all our clients, both former and current. They are at the center of our celebration and will continue to be at the center of our future actions. 💚 💜    The investment has significance for Women’s Link beyond its direct impact on the organization. Feminist organizations, especially those led by women of color, typically experience underinvestment. Women’s Link’s leaders recognize that fundraising is impacted by a capitalist system and other systems of oppression, which allow and encourage the accumulation of money in the hands of a few people and force many people to live in poverty. We are committed to conscientiously use this donation to help dismantle systems of oppression and to advance human rights and reproductive justice.   We will continue building a world where the use of law is no longer a privilege racial justice is centered in all of our actions, and the love and fight for the autonomy, freedom and reproductive justice of women, girls and gender-diverse people is a reality.
