Resourcing Rural Organizing Infrastructure: Funder Self-Assessment

In partnership with the Neighborhood Funders Group’s Integrated Rural Strategies Group, we created a funder self-assessment tool that enables foundations to evaluate their own grantmaking and provides best practices for moving resources to rural communities across the state. This toolkit was created based on the landscape scan titled, Resourcing Rural Organizing Infrastructure: A New York Case Study.

In 2023, are preparing to launch a New York State portfolio to help funders find organizations leading organizing movements in rural communities across the State.
