Looking beyond November’s elections and to the coming year, what have we learned about Inland Empire communities’ needs? And what are we called to do to strengthen community voices, both as individual funders and as a Funders Alliance? Over the past year, the IE Funders Alliance has introduced innovative approaches to learning and connection, collaborating with CBO partners to set a shared agenda for learning and action. This connecting meeting will be an opportunity to reflect on our experiences and look ahead with valuable insights, stronger connections, and actionable plans for 2025 and beyond.
