As companies focused on social and environmental responsibility, we often look for ways to maximize the reach of our programs, including the positive impact we can have on communities, employees, and charitable partners. Yet, it is critical to remember that our approach to philanthropy is just as important as the end results. With a trust-based philanthropy or trust-based social good approach, we can establish a clear set of values that are rooted in advancing equity, shifting power, and building mutually accountable relationships.

In this session we will explore the core principles and grantmaking practices associated with a trust-based methodology. We will also explore how T. Rowe Price and eBay Foundation have incorporated this approach into their giving, engagement, and philanthropy and the positive implications for their partners, employees, and programs. Join us as we offer some actionable insights on how you can evaluate and develop your programs with a trust-based framework.
