Examining the COVID-19 Response of Canadian Grantmaking Foundations: Possibilities, Tensions, and Long-Term Implications
CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NONPROFIT AND SOCIAL ECONOMY RESEARCH(2021)
摘要
This article explores how Canadian philanthropic foundations with social justice mandates responded to the social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic by loosening restrictions for grantees; collaborating on new initiatives; elevating grassroots knowledge; and balancing short- and long-term priorities. This response, however, revealed a series of tensions in the dominant pre-COVID-19 philanthropic model-specifically, as a mechanism to address the social, economic, and ecological crises that predate COVID-19. The early pandemic response of grantmaking foundations can therefore serve as a model for what a more democratic, agile, collaborative, and justice-oriented philanthropic sector can look like.
