Work With Funders

For Funders

MAG partners with funders on a variety of projects. Our work with funders has included:

  • Designing and facilitating high-stakes, multi-stakeholder convenings. We specialize in meetings and conferences designed to bring diverse or unfamiliar parties together. Our focus is to structure participation so that all voices are heard and the convener's objectives are met.
  • Delivering customized capacity-building programs for grantees. We work with funders to strengthen groups of grantees. Capacity-building programs can combine diagnostic evaluation, on-site assistance, group workshops, and ongoing coaching.
  • Conducting studies and research. We design customized research projects to explore issues of interest to a funder or funder network.

Client Testimony

"[Our MAG consultant] knew the philanthropic field and reproductive justice field well...She was very quick to understand what was needed to happen and how to get there without me having to connect all the dots for her...She already knew the challenges were [to collaboration] and what would be useful to help us grapple with them." -Denise Shannon, The Funders Network on Population, Reproductive Health and Rights

"MAG understood that while we were all foundation people who worked on queer issues, we didn't know each other well and didn't have a sense of being a part of the same group. They understood the different personalities in the room and were able to extrapolate from them to come up with a framework that worked for LGBTQ racial equity." – Ellen Gurinsky, The Funders for Lesbian and Gay Issues

CASES

Funders for Lesbian and Gay Issues host a national retreat where grantmakers address the need to increase racial equity in their work.
