Tracking the Field
The Tracking the Field program highlights connections between environmental and global philanthropy and the relationship between inclusiveness and effective environmental philanthropy.
“I wanted to do something different. Something that would alleviate stressors in the nonprofit community, while living our real, core social justice values. We’ve always been very interested in supporting organizations led by People of Color, and unapologetically focusing on those groups. We firmly believe that the people experiencing the greatest harm, or closest to the problem, often have the solutions.”
Shawn Escoffery
Executive Director of the Roy and Patricia Disney Family Foundation (RPDFF), in partnership with EGA
Tracking Racial Equity
The Racial Equity in Environmental Philanthropy Report examines funding to Black, Indigenous, and all People of Color (BIPOC)−led organizations across the United States. It fills a knowledge gap on racial justice funding, and is especially of interest to foundation trustees, supporting BIPOC-led organizations. Moreover, this report sets a baseline for the availability of demographic data to foster greater transparency within environmental philanthropy. It also includes analysis by issue area, geography and strategic focus on funding to BIPOC-led groups. EGA members are encouraged to download the report today to learn more.
