Fund the Future

Now you can invest in EPIP’s future leadership moments.

We created the Fund the Future Campaign to support our mission: to develop emerging leaders committed to building a just, equitable, and sustainable society. FTF investments will ensure a smooth executive director transition at EPIP and enable valuable programming for philanthropy’s rising stars.

Our campaign aims to raise $1.7 million in unrestricted funds for programming through 2015. Investors have already committed over $1 million to the campaign. To reach our goal, we need $694,000 more. That’s where you come in.

Why the FTF?

Many large nonprofit organizations don’t know how to plan for executive transitions or how to invest in leadership development for their most promising talent. Limited organizational capacity can make a healthy transition difficult when it’s time for new leaders to step up.

We wanted to be different. We saw an opportunity with our own executive transition to be a model of a thoughtful transition. The process was part of the three-year strategic plan that started with our impact assessment of our first 10 years of work. The EPIP board and staff carefully devised systems and processes to keep EPIP grounded in the midst of transition. We are happy to say we accomplished our goal with the hire of Rahsaan Harris as our new Executive Director.
