Marga’s advice to philanthropic industries takes many forms, from directly advising grantmaking to assessing the value and impact of grants that have already been made. Community foundations play unique roles in the cities and regions in which they are separated, extending their role far beyond grantmaking. As Marga increasingly works closer to the ground in localities, community foundations are becoming likely partners. The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven has periodically called upon Marga for strategic guidance around the Foundation’s role in building the leadership capacity of and strengthening philanthropy within communities of color in Connecticut.
The latest manifestation of this Communities of Color Initiative is in diversifying leadership in the philanthropic and nonprofit industries in the Connecticut. Marga has assisted the Foundation in planning the development of a new leadership institute that enhances the skills of and opportunities for local, early to mid career people of color interested in careers in nonprofits and foundations. Marga will continually work closely with the Foundation on the implementation of this effort, providing meeting facilitation, career planning advice, coaching, and technical assistance.
