June 16, 2022: Rebuilding Trust in Nonprofits and Philanthropy

June 16, 2022,2:00 pm - 3:15 pm

Free
Join CEP and the Council on Foundations for a discussion about rebuilding trust in nonprofits and philanthropy.

About this event

Recent data and research from sources such as the Edelman Trust Barometer suggest declining trust in nonprofits and philanthropy in the United States. Fraying trust in institutions, perceptions that nonprofits and philanthropy are politicized, intensifying critiques of philanthropy as a “ruse” or self-promotion, increasing societal polarization, and well-publicized scandals all may play a part.

How does declining trust in institutions affect our ability as nonprofit organizations to make social change? Could it impact charitable giving? Lead to new governmental regulations? Or make it difficult to build the kinds of partnerships that advance our work? And what can and should philanthropy do to rebuild that trust?

This panel will discuss current challenges, opportunities, and examples to help guide our work.
