About this Event

About Inspired Generosity

Brought to you by the WF Fund, Inspired Generosity: Muslim American Stories in Philanthropy, provides a national stage for powerful stories of generosity from the Muslim American community—spotlighting tales of spirituality driven good works.

We invite you to view our stories, engaging in a collective experience that affirms how faith can nurture care for all people.

Panel Discussion

In this panel, we will explore how donors can help shift power from institutional gatekeepers in philanthropy to grassroots leaders themselves, letting them set the agenda–not just receive funding. Panelists will discuss their experiences using models such as participatory grantmaking, giving circles and hyper-local organizing, all the while exploring the diverse and inspiring ways communities around the midwest are demonstrating generosity.
