00:00:00,705 --> 00:00:02,433
Good grant making really matters.
2
00:00:02,827 --> 00:00:05,788
The decisions funders make shape which
communities get support
3
00:00:05,788 --> 00:00:08,029
and which charities can survive and
thrive.
4
00:00:08,029 --> 00:00:11,311
But we don't hear enough about the
thinking behind those decisions
5
00:00:11,311 --> 00:00:13,712
and the questions funders themselves are
grappling with.
6
00:00:13,712 --> 00:00:17,694
I'm Alex Blake. I've spent 20 years at the
intersection of charities
7
00:00:17,694 --> 00:00:18,975
and the funders who support them.
8
00:00:18,975 --> 00:00:23,096
In that time, I've developed a lot of
respect for what good grant making looks
like
9
00:00:23,337 --> 00:00:25,778
and a lot of curiosity about the thinking
behind it.

00:00:25,778 --> 00:00:29,349

Foundation staff, trustees or advisors,
14
00:00:34,962 --> 00:00:37,784
people who have thought deeply about this
work and are willing
15
00:00:37,784 --> 00:00:41,946
to share their insights. We get into how
funding decisions actually get made,
16
00:00:41,946 --> 00:00:45,027
the process behind them and where grant
making is heading.
17
00:00:45,027 --> 00:00:49,469
The conversations are honest, practical
and respectful because better
understanding
18
00:00:49,469 --> 00:00:51,190
of grant making is good for charities,
19
00:00:51,190 --> 00:00:54,672
good for foundations and good for the
communities both exist to serve.
