Today you can make an enormous impact in the lives of aspiring young athletes in Colorado by making a donation to Chance Sports through Youth Sports Giving Day! Starting September 4th, all donations will be matched DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR - doubling your impact! For many kids, participating in competitive sports has a profound impact that lasts a lifetime. From improved physical and mental health to better grades in school and developing leadership skills, participation in sports - particularly competitive sports - can be a game changer. But we also know that the costs associated with such participation - from club fees and travel to new gear and uniforms - can be a barrier for entry for many families, leaving their athletes on the sidelines. That’s where CHANCE SPORTS steps in to help. By providing partial scholarships to families with financial need, we are removing barriers and supporting our young athletes in their desire to PLAY! Equal opportunity levels the playing field and makes it about talent and not access. #youthsportsgivingday

While philanthropic pluralism sounds like a benign and worthy goal, an op-ed by several philanthropic leaders last year gave many of us cause for concern. Adding to a range of critics, PRE joined our partners at CHANGE Philanthropy cautioning that the call for pluralism in philanthropy as stated was a diversion and risked undermining or chilling rightful calls for greater racial and social justice and the investments needed to advance those goals. We’re increasingly hearing this call & related fears of polarization lifted up directly in contrast to approaches that support those most impacted to build power & frame their own solutions. We know some well-intended funders & allies are among those leading the charge, but hoping they can hear & not simply dismiss the informed critiques of many. (& yes, the irony of calling for pluralism & yet minimizing the voices of those who are expressing doubts/fears as overreacting or foolish is kind of classic arrogance of those less threatened by the status quo or rollback of justice.) Next week, I will join a panel with authors and other leaders in the sector as we seek to deepen the debate & discussion as part of the Urban Institute’s Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy and the Chronicle of Philanthropy for the 2024 Giving Innovation Summit on April 29th at 2-3:30 EST. We recognize the relationship of this conversation to PRE’s recent op-ed, which addressed how the danger of both accommodationist practices and misuse of terms can fuel efforts to squelch dissent or challenges to the status quo – while under the guise of seeming to call for higher principles. See added details & registration below-
Join the Urban Institute’s Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy and the Chronicle for our next online forum, The Place of Pluralism in Charitable Giving, on Monday, April 29th from 2-3:30 p.m. ET. We’ll gather the leading figures in charitable giving and philanthropy to ask what role pluralism does and should play in the sector, a key theme of #TheCommons, the Chronicle’s new section focused on how nonprofits and foundations can best heal the nation’s divides. Our speakers include Aisha Alexander-Young, Sam Gill, Brian Hooks, Stacy Palmer, Hilary Pennington, Benjamin Soskis, Tene Traylor, Lori Villarosa. Register today! ?? https://bit.ly/3wfArUH
