Letter to the Editor (Repost): Funders Want Nonprofits to Merge. There’s a Better Option.

“The most important question funders should be asking right now is how we can make the whole field stronger based on our grantees’ self-identified needs and perspectives. Collaboration between nonprofits strengthens connections among organizations and movement leaders, resulting in more innovative approaches and a stronger base of knowledge.” 

In a Letter to the Editor published in The Chronicle of Philanthropy, our Disability Inclusion Fund’s Program Director, Nikki Brown-Booker, talks about the difference between consolidation driven by shared organizational goals and mergers resulting from grant maker preference—and shares more about how, and why, funders can fund collaborative initiatives.
