About this grant
Finance Project’s Grantmakers Income Security Taskforce is an affinity group of funders who are broadly interested in the social and economic conditions that generate and perpetuate poverty. Its mission is to broaden funders’ perspectives on critical issues, deepen their understanding of issues in which they are already active, and promote strategic, collaborative grantmaking. Mott staff has been active in this affinity group since its inception. During the renewal grant period, the group will continue to provide a vehicle to assist funders in better understanding income security issues and the status and/or impact of policies and programs designed to address those issues. This work will be accomplished through working groups, quarterly meetings, special projects, and information-sharing efforts including ongoing maintenance of a funders’ listserv.
