Trust is not something you "set and forget"- it requires cultivation and regular maintenance. -@shaadys @TrustBasedPhil #DemystifyingTBP

Does Trust-Based Philanthropy Mean Unconditional Trust? - No, not in my experience as a grantee, trust is earned, built, and when it's broken it needs repair. It needs care to build and sustain it. - @YolandaCoentro #DemystifyingTBP

A funder question: How do we find the organizations we can trust? @shaadys: START from a place of trust! 🔥🔥🔥 Why do we expect the organizations we have throughly vetted to then perform "trust" for us? @TrustBasedPhil #DemystifyingTBP

A common question we get is "how do we find organizations we can trust?" Our answer- start with a place of trust! @shaadys @TrustBasedPhil #demystifyingTBP

A sad reality.
Black, Indigenous, and People of Color experience disproportionately more distrust in philanthropy. #demystifyingTBP

What does trust-based philanthropy look like in practice? "The 6-practices can be interrupted in many ways. @RSClarkFdn it's an invitation to think differently. It allows the grantee partner to focus on the work. It's captured in trusting community." -@phipster #DemystifyingTBP

If we say trust-based philanthropy is not about unconditional trust, what is it about? There is a due-diligence and homework process that we do upfront. We believe that our grantee partners can make the decision on how they use the funds. @phipster @RSClarkFdn #DemystifyingTBP

Nonprofit perspective: it can be a struggle once you hit a certain size. Trust can be broken when funders make assumptions about our financial status because we scaled. Give grace to let us know in advance. Don't just put them through the process. @YolandaCoentro #DemystifyingTBP

In trust-based philanthropy we are in it with you. We are shoulder to shoulder. It's about caring about the humans and the communities they are accountable to. Are we coming without agendas and being consistent, transparent, empathetic? @PiaVision #DemystifyingTBP

"There's a humanity to trust-based philanthropy. There's a deep empathy - that's why our grantee partners @TWI_2022 advocated for #trustbasedphilanthropy." -@PiaVision #DemystifyingTBP

"I think it's important to tell stories of when trust is broken and when it can be repaired, and when it cannot be repaired. We are talking about human relationships of trust. It's about transparency: who, what and why we are funding. -@PiaVision #DemystifyingTBP
