Uniting fundraisers across movements to share what works — and build people power.

Inspired by INCITE! The Revolution Will Not Be Funded, nurtured through the Grassroots Institute for Fundraising Training, and modeled after the Radical Communicators Network, our network continues the work of movement organizers and fundraisers who foresaw our current state and offered a vision for something different.

  • We come together as fundraisers in service of movements for social justice—not as a movement ourselves, but as essential infrastructure for the movements we support. We foster cross-generational connections between seasoned and emerging fundraisers, match people with their mentors, and develop strategies to improve the retention of movement fundraisers. Through deeper relationships and collaboration, we're building the strongest possible progressive and Left ecosystem to contend for real governing power.

  • We share skills and experience in raising money for our movements—deepening our explicit analysis of race, class, and gender within resource mobilization, testing and refining strategies for independent revenue generation, providing tools and resources unique to fundraising for our movements, and transferring those skills to emerging fundraisers.

  • Fundraising can be isolating work. Together, we navigate the often opaque philanthropic landscape, make sense of funding trends, explore joint projects and campaigns to maximize resources for our movements, and elevate fundraising as a discipline by bridging the fundraising and organizing divide.
