Partnership Project

This grant is for legal technical assistance for the Green Leadership Trust, a fiscally sponsored project of the Partnership Project, to help increase understanding of the current landscape as grantees engage in DEIJ-related charitable activities. The Partnership Project’s Green Leadership Trust works to build a more effective environmental movement by supporting and growing the impact and leadership of Black, Indigenous, and people of color serving on U.S. environmental nonprofit boards. Given the impact of boards on the direction of their organizations’ hiring and retention practices, programming, and partnerships, such efforts are a key part of the work to ensure the environmental movement is inclusive and relevant. Green Leadership Trust is guided first and foremost by members’ responsibilities as fiduciaries of the organizations they represent. This grant is for legal technical assistance.
