DONATE TO TRANSFORM

Building the Donate to Transform program

By Betina Sarue

The executive coordination of the Philanthropy Network for Social Justice and its governance team are committed to structuring the Donate to Transform program. The proposal is to carry out organic planning, which is at the same time integrated and complementary to the Network's existing lines of action, with support from the IAF and Porticus structured through the Support and Capacity Strengthening programs. With Donate to Transform, in addition to the two existing programs, the Network inaugurates a new programmatic line focused on advocacy, with the aim of influencing the agenda in the national and international philanthropic ecosystem, with themes such as social justice, community philanthropy, shifting the power and strengthening of civil society actors in guaranteeing rights and expression.

By Graciela Hopstein

Since 2018, the RFJS coordination has been carrying out annual surveys among its members with the purpose of mapping and producing information about its activities in order to be able to count on an updated database (which allows the construction of historical series), but mainly to provide visibility to the work carried out in the field of Brazilian philanthropy, focusing on the areas of social justice, human rights and community development.

Communicating and producing knowledge: Donating to Transform into focus

By Mica Peres

Since the beginning of 2021, the Philanthropy Network for Social Justice has been dedicated to structuring and developing the Donate to Transform Program. We have already shared here the beginning of these movements in the contributions of Graciela Hopstein and Betina Sarue in the articles “The Network announces a new program with the support of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Giving for Change Program” and “Building the Donate to Transform program”. In these texts, the authors present the program and define its main objective: “[…] to promote community philanthropy and social justice as a strategy to achieve development led by communities, strengthening the demand for rights.”

Celebrating LGBTQIA+ Pride Month: Who Supports Diversity?

By Mica Peres

The Philanthropy Network for Social Justice is made up of thirteen member organizations, thematic and community funds and community foundations that provide support in various areas for Brazilian civil society organizations and collectives. These organizations work by supporting initiatives in capitals, in the interior, with emergency actions, in humanitarian aid. They work in family farming, community development, environmental education, transportation, land use, food, housing and water resources. We could spend hours describing the fields where this support is present, the lines of work they develop, but, this month, we want to highlight a key aspect in this process: the audiences involved in the field of community philanthropy and social justice, that is, the people to whom the support is intended.

Donate to transform: strategies and concepts

The Donate to Transform Program – implemented with support from Dutch Cooperation – is organically integrated with the actions that the Philanthropy Network for Social Justice (RFJS) has been developing since 2018. The production of content on community and justice philanthropy social was already a priority line of action, which is now organized organically with the launch of the Donate to Transform Seal, a collection of publications that reflect this reflection. Strengthening the Network and its members is a central strategy of the program that will now be aligned with the advocacy program, which aims to boost and position the community philanthropy and social justice agenda in the Brazilian philanthropic ecosystem, expanding and strengthening organizations in the civil society committed to social justice, seeking to progressively increase donations (grantmaking actions).

Giving for Change: Strategies and Concepts

The Giving for Change Program – implemented with the support of Dutch cooperation – is organically integrated with the actions that the Philanthropy Network for Social Justice (Network) has been developing since 2018. Producing materials on community philanthropy and social justice was already a priority line of action of the Network, which has now organically developed into launching the Giving for Change label, a collection of publications that bring forward these reflections. Strengthening the Network and its members is a central strategy of the program, which will now be aligned with the impact program which, in turn, aims to boost and securely position the agenda of community philanthropy and philanthropy for social justice in the Brazilian philanthropic ecosystem, expanding and strengthening civil society organizations committed to social justice, seeking to progressively increase donations (grantmaking actions).

Results and collective impact of the Support Program

By Graciela Hopstein

The Support Program was significant for the member organizations as it contributed to strengthening networking and exchange between peers, promoting the sharing of experiences and this is, without a doubt, one of the main results achieved.

Implemented between 2020 and 2021, the Support Program for member organizations of the Philanthropy Network for Social Justice, had support from the Inter-American Foundation (IAF), and was aimed at strengthening members as members of the Network, seeking to promote exchange of experiences and learning and the articulation of partnerships. This initiative was developed in the context of the Network Strengthening Program, involving capacity development actions through online meetings and workshops.

By Tarisai Jangara

This interview is part of a series of dialogues carried out by the Global Fund by Community Foundations with the main partners of the Donate to Transform program, developed with support from Dutch Cooperation, which will invest €24 million for its implementation and will last five years. The Program is implemented in Brazil, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Palestine and Uganda, being led by a consortium made up of four organizations: the African Philanthropy Network, the Kenya Community Development Foundation (KCDF), the Global Fund Community Foundations (GFCF) and the Wilde Ganzen Foundation.
