Let us resolve to sharpen our focus and act with greater urgency. Let this moment of pain become our moment of opportunity to learn, grow, and deepen our respect for all people. We are continually reminded of the importance of exposing ourselves to different backgrounds and experiences so that we can transcend beyond our own narratives and share in diverse and differentiated ways of existing. This challenge requires our Foundation to remain committed to the long, hard work that change requires so that progress becomes a reality. We challenge ourselves daily to listen, learn, and grow with our community.
STANDING STRONG TOGETHER VIMEO FULL
The Community Foundation is deeply invested in supporting the health, housing, and education needs of our region with a focus on communities that lack the resources and/or opportunities to achieve their full potential. We are propelled to solution by creating platforms to elevate this conversation so that we can educate and empower our respective communities. As an organization, we will also take time for self-reflection and seek opportunities to further evolve our own practices so that we are truly leaning into our values of diversity and inclusion. Our grief, pain, and frustration are evident throughout our nation and call us to come together to address inequitable systems and injustice. We are grieving the senseless loss of George Floyd in Minneapolis and others who came before him. JThe greater Richmond region and communities across the nation are confronting two crises – the novel coronavirus, which continues to disproportionately impact people of color, and racism, which has afflicted our country for generations.
