Lever Fund Statement on Fighting Violence and Racism against Asian Americans #StopAsianHate #LeverFund leverfund.org/blog/lever-fun…
The #AmericanRescuePlan is expected to lift tens of thousands of DC children out of poverty & give our unemployed workers a small boost. Projections from @urbanstitute show poverty could decline by 42% among Black Americans & 39% among Hispanic Americans. urbn.is/3rPEM9C
Spending money on others can make us happier. But it matters how we give. We can make a greater impact, and boost our own happiness along the way, if we make a key shift in how we help others: appreciate our shared humanity. #philanthropy #leverfund #dmv ted.com/talks/elizabet…
Today, we launch Profiles in Courage: Leading Through Crisis. A Thought Leadership Series curated by The Lever Fund. Read the inaugural blog post about the creativity and resilience of Karleton Thomas, @BUILDMetroDC's Regional Executive Director - bit.ly/2GVFksA

It's tough to answer because what I feel is a combination of emotions that sometimes oppose each other: Rage Grief Hope Joy Determination Pride Optimism Realism It's hard to carry all of these but I'm now finding ways to channel them.
There is a widening recognition that our city's poverty-fighting ecosystem needs reconditioning. Slingshot has spent the past three and a half years promoting this objective. Equally important, Slingshot has built the tools and processes to make this possible.
As the #CapitalRegion continues to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, one thing remains true. We're in this together. From Baltimore-to-Richmond, our region is resilient, and together we'll come back stronger than ever before. youtu.be/_8EGxNTXdMg
@DanPorterfield @RobinHoodNYC To add to that point, Eddie Zheng of @NewBreathFdn closed his talk by reminding us that “we must engage in personal revolution to embark on a collective revolution.” (paraphrased)
Important discussion about the fight for civil rights for immigrants and those involved with the criminal justice system. Ably moderated by a great New Yorker, @JohnBKing. #NoCityLimits
Powerful conversation b/w @RobinHoodNYC CEO @iamwesmoore & @AspenInstitute CEO @DanPorterfield. We will all need to read @iamwesmoore’s new book w/@EricaLG “Five Days: The Fiery Reckoning of an American City” about the death of Freddie Gray. #NoCityLimits
In the fight to end poverty...”the most powerful thing that we have is our voice. The most powerful thing that we can do is our advocacy.” -@iamwesmoore @RobinHoodNYC #NoCityLimits
“We have been trained to work independently, but there is a movement growing to work collectively in pursuit of justice and opportunity. In the end, we all want the same thing.” #GeoffreyCanada #NoCityLimits @RobinHoodNYC
None of us are asked to do everything. We are just asked to do what we can do—to do our part. @iamwesmoore @RobinHoodNYC #NoCityLimits
Love hearing about the work of @JPAL— salivating thinking about tracking impact in people’s lives over ten years! Dreamy 😍 #NoCityLimits
A good reminder that in order to interventions to be meaningful, they need to be designed to respond to the mindsets and contexts of people’s lives. One-size-fits-all is not a thing when it comes to humans or economic mobility. @JPAL @RobinHoodNYC #NoCityLimits
Grateful for @RobinHoodNYC bringing a great group together. Sharing and learning is critical for our collective poverty fighting efforts #NoCityLimits #OpportunityImpact
