When people of color are not allowed to speak for themselves or their voices are not heard, there’s a psychological toll that often leads to burnout. Black and Brown fundraisers are leaving their organizations because they feel isolated and unwelcome. So, what’s the role of the non-profit sector in fighting systemic racism? How can leaders support Black and Brown staff?
This is an important conversation all leaders need to be a part of, which is why we invited a special guest to join us for this episode. Kia Croom is a fundraising executive with over 20 years of experience. To date, she’s raised close to $400 million dollars for non-profits of all sizes and varieties. She’s worked in a host of development roles and is very passionate about racial justice in philanthropy.
If you want to be a force for racial justice, but are still learning, like so many of us, this episode is for you. We’re glad you’re here.
