At Communities In Schools of Central Texas, we believe in the power of relationships—with our students and families and among our school communities, civic leaders and funders. Trust is at the heart of our relationships. Thank you, I Live Here I Give Here and Impact Austin, for hosting today’s “How to Give: Trust-based Philanthropy” conversation with our CEO Sharon Vigil; Laila Scott, board member of Reissa Foundation; and Michelle Flores Vryn, CFRE, Nonprofit Growth Strategist at MFV Consulting. Simone Talma Flowers from Interfaith Action of Central Texas - iACT served as moderator and shared her own insights and wisdom! As the ground shakes under many nonprofits, trust in philanthropy is critical to ensuring we remain courageous on behalf of the communities with whom we work. At CIS, we have experienced the power of trust-based relationships—from donors who consistently invest in our shared mission to philanthropists like MacKenzie Scott, who lives the values of trust by making transformative gifts that strengthen the long-term trajectory of nonprofit organizations—and shape the future of society. #AllInforKids Communities In Schools (fb)
