What are people saying about CORE events?

“Being able to leverage your personal resources for progressive change— and being given the tools to do so— that’s what CORE & Resource Generation are all about. Wonderful— and thank you!”

“Attending the CORE event helped me to connect with other young people of color who give in many ways, and I was able to engage in meaningful conversation that helped my personal development. CORE is a way to meet others that can help push you in positive ways.”

“I believe people of color are at a disadvantage in terms of leveraging our resources because the social networks available to other groups are not readily available. And because of the diversity of class, access, and experiences of people of color, these networks are hard to find. CORE is a great first step in creating and inspiring these networks.”

“The CORE program is really critical at this moment in philanthropy. Creating space for young people of color who give to clarify social change values, and explore ways to make their giving more strategic seems especially essential. CORE has pioneered this crucial conversation, and provides participants practical tools for deepening their giving's impact.”

"For me, CORE is about talking with others about experiences of class privilege in relationship to cultural identity, racism, migration and historical trauma. I want to hear how people negotiate these experiences and set out on a path to give their many resources to create a better world."
