We bring together funders to learn, connect, and mobilize resources with an intersectional and place-based focus. 1 0 1551746 Amplify Fund, a pooled fund housed at NFG, grew its funder learning committee to 20 foundations in 2021. Amplify's grantee partners also had many opportunities for connection including participation in regular Amplification calls which began in April 2020 and have continued throughout the pandemic. These calls are an optional, grantee-only space to connect informally and share learnings and challenges. Grantees regularly attend these sessions in relatively large numbers and have developed relationships across the Fund's eight places (North Carolina, Missouri, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Tennessee, and California). 695026 150000 27500 NFG's Funders for a Just Economy (FJE) program launched a new Community of Practice (CoP) in November 2021, in partnership with Liberation in a Generation and ReWork the Bay. 22 funders from 9 foundations are participating in this CoP which will go through June 2022, and the group connects regularly through virtual calls to explore how to deepen our grantmaking efforts to advance justice, incorporate anti-racist practices in philanthropy, and partner with movement leaders in the creation of an inclusive economy. FJE also hosted a Virtual Learning Visit to the California Inland Region in July 2021, collaborating with other NFG programs: Amplify Fund, Integrated Rural Strategies Group and Democratizing Development Program. This three-day event convened community members and grassroots leaders to learn how foundations can fund movement partners to build power. This event had over 135 registrants and averaged 80 participants per day. 550057 50900 6800 Integrated Rural Strategies Group (IRSG) held its second annual Multiracial Rural Equity Summit in December 2021, bringing together over 75 funders to hear from movement leaders and strategize together on how philanthropy can resource rural organizing as an integral funding strategy to address climate justice, land sovereignty, building a multiracial democracy, and more.In 2021 NFG's IRSG and Midwest Organizing Infrastructure Funders Group collaborated to establish the Campaign to Support Black Farmers, a pooled fund to help Black farmers in Illinois reclaim their land. By the end of 2021 this campaign had raised $55,000 to support the farmers of Pembroke Township, Illinois and Black Oaks Center, in an effort to preserve and protect their land ownership and economic opportunity that are threatened by decades of systemic racism in food systems, public systems, and land ownership laws. IRSG also deepened its commitment to engage local organizers directly in our strategies, by launching the inaugural committee of Movement Advisors in August 2021. Its inaugural cohort of seven rural leaders will deepen IRSG's work to increase philanthropy's accountability to rural BIPOC movement leaders. 5357124 3844055 147100 Throughout 2021, Neighborhood Funders Group (NFG) supported people in philanthropy to connect, strategize, and take action together. Across programs, we are working toward the long-term outcome of liberating philanthropic assets so that BIPOC and low-income communities have power to self-determine. Highlights from the year included: In 2021, NFG's total institutional membership grew to over 140 organizations. NFG's high quality, cutting-edge program offerings have attracted 13 new funders to NFG as members and participating leaders, including The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation, Kataly Foundation, Kolibri Foundation, and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. To hold space and continue to be a political home for funders during the ongoing pandemic, NFG held regular Member Connection zoom calls. We connected our members and other funders throughout the year, organizing over 21 virtual events with a total of 557 unduplicated participants, including opportunities to connect through communities of practice, funder tables, and peer learning calls. We brought together a cohort of visionary leaders in the philanthropic field through Philanthropy Forward, NFG's Fellowship program for foundation CEO leaders who center racial and gender justice and community power building to disrupt and transform the future of philanthropy. Our third cohort launched in May 2021 with 16 Fellows from foundations around the country. Throughout the year-long duration of the cohort, Fellows attend six virtual sessions, undergo a 360 leadership assessment, access peer learning and coaching, and have informal connection opportunities including optional weekly virtual coffees.Our third cohort for Philanthropy Forward was composed of 87% BIPOC fellows and 13% white fellows, an intentional composition for the Philanthropy Forward Program design. In 2021, three foundation CEOs participating in the cohort helped direct $16,550,000 in new funding streams to advance racial justice and address structural racism in their communities. This brings the total amount of dollars Philanthropy Forward fellows have moved to BIPOC-led organizations as a result of their participation to $41,550,000.Philanthropy Forward's Alumni Network convened a robust group of 50 foundation CEOs who are current and past Fellows, through optional bi-monthly network meetings. Exciting conversations and potential collaborations have emerged around a range of issues including liberated HR and governance strategies, implementing BIWOC feminist agendas in philanthropic institutions, and developing investment portfolio practices for foundations that center economic justice.NFG's programs continued to be a welcoming place for BIPOC and other justice-minded funders to practice shared leadership in philanthropy with movement leaders, and organize their peers to support BIPOC community power-building. NFG's programs are led by committees, with a total of 37 funders involved in funder organizing through these networks. 5357124 3844055 147100 8153953 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 45 0 1 24 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 15 15 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 CA X Neighborhood Funders Group 5104446063 1790 Fifth Street Berkeley CA 94710 Alison Corwin Co-Chair 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Aaron Tanaka Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Amy Kenyon Board Member 3.00 X 0 0 0 Aditi Vaidya Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Sobecki Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Marjona Jones Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Shona Chakravartty Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Amoretta Morris Co-Chair 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Mark Paley Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Cory Anderson Secretary 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Sandra Martinez Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Judith Bell Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Kevin Ryan Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Kaberi Bannerjee Murthy Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Tania Duran Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Adriana Rocha President 40.00 X 175319 0 47097 Sarita Ahuja Vice President of Operatio 40.00 X 147880 0 22680 Faron McLurkin Vice President of Programs 40.00 X 136473 0 21825 Amy Morris Senior Director, Amplify Fund 40.00 X 149039 0 21839 Manisha Vaze Program Director 40.00 X 119801 0 16530 Melody Baker Director of Programs, Amplify Fund 40.00 X 117881 0 17824 846393 0 147795 8 0 1 0 Social Strategy Associates LLC 3 Court Square West Ste 5110 Long Island City NY 11101 Project consulting 142950 SMZ Consulting LLC 2817 Milton Avenue Dallas TX 75205 Program consulting 136250 Frontline Solutions International Corp 1032 15th Street NW Unit 303 Washington DC 20005 Program consulting 124918 3 545075 24568321 25113396 Conference 900099 173600 173600 Other Program Revenue 900099 7800 7800 181400 12532 12532 25307328 181400 0 12532 X 4044955 4044955 181500 127050 36300 18150 1713630 1485827 145119 82684 113792 85914 21959 5919 212743 172258 28787 11698 147350 125667 13933 7750 22694 19676 3018 84017 74148 9869 1491032 1425648 59280 6104 9840 9840 14093 8013 6080 79626 22609 57017 71798 63787 8011 7376 5281 2095 105633 105183 450 10898 3811 7087 6652 3581 3071 Transfer of grant funds 338880 338880 Communication 21901 9260 12641 Web-based Services 16411 2776 13635 Staff development 10941 5332 5609 26070 14457 11613 8731832 8153953 445574 132305 4565245 18001621 1000018 1464612 5655547 23813 22096 50614 21324 25655 29290 102580 118307 7181923 23826861 252258 295997 6754 17642 101794 116609 360806 430248 X 2855218 4528717 3965899 18867896 6821117 23396613 7181923 23826861 16575496 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 5023409 3043792 3285841 5649775 25113396 42116213 5023409 3043792 3285841 5649775 25113396 42116213 19831922 22284291 3104 5890 13119 10090 12532 44735 1345 1225 2570 42163518 781590 0.52850 0.49680 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Part I-A, Line 1: There were no political campaign activities. 50614 21324 29290 29290 Operating Lease Liability 116609 116609 X 25307328 0 25307328 0 25307328 8731832 0 8731832 0 8731832 Part X, Line 2: For the year ended December 31, 2021, NFG has documented its consideration of FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, that provides guidance for reporting uncertainty in income taxes and has determined that no material uncertain tax positions qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. 1 The San Francisco Foundation 1 Embarcadero Center San Francisco CA 94111 010679337 501(c)3 150000 0 To support ReWork the Bay Amalgamated Charitable Foundation 1825 K Street Northwest Washington DC 20006 821517696 501(c)3 842555 0 To support the LIFT Fund's national grantmaking Amalgamated Charitable Foundation 1825 K Street Northwest Washington DC 20006 821517696 501(c)3 3000000 0 To support the Southern Workers Opportunity Fund Amalgamated Charitable Foundation 1825 K Street Northwest Washington DC 20006 821517696 501(c)3 50000 0 To support rural organizing 4 1 X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Adriana Rocha President 175319 0 0 0 0 0 10800 0 36297 0 222416 0 0 0 Amy Morris Senior Director, Amplify Fund 149039 0 0 0 0 0 9049 0 12790 0 170878 0 0 0 Sarita Ahuja Vice President of Operatio 147880 0 0 0 0 0 8820 0 13860 0 170560 0 0 0 Faron McLurkin Vice President of Programs 136473 0 0 0 0 0 8400 0 13425 0 158298 0 0 0 Form 990, Part III, line 2 NFG's newest program, Midwest Organizing Infrastructure Funders, kicked off in 2021 to remedy racial inequities in the Midwest region of the U.S. by increasing funder coordination and investment in grassroots organizing, advocacy, and civic engagement.
