Program Description

What would happen if more funders saw their grantees as “funded partners” and proactively sought candid feedback on their grantmaking process? To explore these questions, representatives from the St. Louis Funders Learning and Evaluation Group (FLEG) – Grantee Voice Committee polled 170 local grantees and funders, conducted a cross-sector workshop, and analyzed results. Join us as we hear from them on what the data reveals about grantee/funder relationships and opportunities for meaningful partnerships.

About the St. Louis Funders Learning and Evaluation Group (FLEG)

FLEG, established in 2014, is an independent collective of representatives from local grant-making institutions who are passionate about their own learning and evaluation strategies.

Presenters on February 12th will include Jenny Lynch (St. Louis County Children’s Service Fund), Kristin Cowart (Saint Louis MHB), Stacey Morse (The Morse Group), and Katy Keller (Marillac Mission Fund).
