As our world becomes more uncertain, planning for the future becomes more important, but also more difficult. This interactive workshop will introduce fundamental tools used in scenario analysis and risk management and show how foundations can apply these tools to predict how economic, social/political, and environmental changes might affect their grantees and their beneficiaries. It will also provide guidance for making contingency plans to respond to possible dramatic changes in their operating environment.
Many foundations are exploring potential new programs in response to the pandemic, racial reckoning, and threats to our democracy, among many other challenges. This workshop will introduce a structured, efficient process that foundations can use to quickly learn ‘the lay of the land’ in potential new spaces and identify how they can complement – and learn from – the efforts of others as they seek to generate meaningful, measurable impact.
In response to the racial reckoning in 2020, foundations have sought many perspectives to learn how they can support racial justice, shift power, and more effectively engage communities in grantmaking decisions. Moving beyond the basic practices that many foundations are already incorporating, this workshop will examine how foundations can incorporate a racial equity perspective in their overall strategy setting and implementation planning at both the institutional level and the programmatic level.
We are no longer accepting applications for the cohort. Please contact Phuong Pham at phuong@socalgrantmakers.org if you have any questions.

It is difficult to overstate the importance of a fair census count. When census information is inaccurate, it threatens to muffle the voices of undercounted groups and regions, undermining the basic political equality central to our democracy.
In January 2017, California’s three leading philanthropy-supporting organizations — SoCal Grantmakers (SCG), Northern California Grantmakers (NCG), and Catalyst of San Diego & Imperial Counties — officially announced our statewide alliance, Philanthropy California.
Philanthropy California remains committed to supporting our democracy and fostering civic engagement. We have initiated our work towards a complete and accurate 2030 Census in California.
