Impact Reports
2024 G4GC Executive Summary
In 2024, investments in racial and gender justice were significantly reduced, and our grantee community was greatly impacted by this underinvestment. We haven’t let this deter us in our mission to support organizations and movements led by and for girls and gender-expansive youth of Color. This year we held our annual Black Girl Freedom Week in February, organized a convening for our New Songs Rising Fellowship with 10 Indigenous young people, hosted an event with community members and special guests at Martha’s Vineyard, and continued to connect with grantee partners across the country.
2023 G4GC Impact Report
In 2023, we expanded our work through youth engagement. We built out a Future Economy Lab and filmed our Pass The Mic Project with young people in our community. Additionally, we continued to elevate youth as decision-makers by creating a Holding A Sister Cohort with trans young people of Color and a New Songs Rising Fellowship for Indigenous girls and youth to help further our participatory grantmaking process.
2022 G4GC Executive Summary
In 2021 and 2022, we focused on strengthening our internal infrastructure, continuing to raise and distribute grants to the field, and growing our community of co-investors. We also launched our New Songs Rising Initiative and Holding a Sister Initiative.
2020 G4GC Impact Report
In our first year, the global pandemic and movement for racial justice shook the world — and placed a harsh spotlight on what we have always known: girls and gender-expansive youth of Color are facing multiple, intersecting systems of oppression. We launched Love Is Healing and the Black Girl Freedom Fund (along with the launch of the #1Billion4BlackGirls campaign) this year, motivated by the urgency to meet the moment.
Start from the Ground Up
“Start from the Ground Up: Increasing Support for Girls of Color” is a G4GC research project consisting of a report and a toolkit that opens a window into opportunities for philanthropy to be more equitable and accountable to girls of Color, and shines a light on how critical the reality of underfunding is for organizations led by and for girls of Color.
We hope “Start from the Ground Up” will facilitate important conversations within philanthropy, bolster the work of leaders in the G4GC ecosystem, and catalyze an increase in resources to organizations and leaders focused on girls of Color.
This project was created in part through town hall discussions with youth across the U.S. in 2018. Check out these listening sessions on our YouTube channel.
