30 Year Bridge Builder

For three decades, the Lenny Zakim Fund has practiced community-centered, trust-based grantmaking and built deep expertise in relational, power-conscious capacity building with grassroots organizations across Eastern Massachusetts. On October 29th, we’re convening our peers and partners across the philanthropic ecosystem to share key findings from our 30-Year Impact Study — what we’ve learned about ceding power, building trust, and resourcing grassroots leadership in ways that last. Join us as we build bridges across the philanthropic sector and explore what this model can offer the field going forward.
 

Date: Thursday, October 29, 2026 | 3:00-6:00pm | Reception to follow formal programming.

Location: The Nonprofit Center – 89 South Street, Boston, MA 02111
