Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

 

Asset Funders Network is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within our organization. Our first report shares where we are in creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organization and aligning our internal practices with external strategies furthering equitable opportunities and outcomes.

“There’s no one solution. The fact that I can sit down at the table with foundations who come at it from a very different point of view, and we find common ground in wanting to help, is maybe the most significant thing that AFN does.”
