How-To Guide
Reframe Risk and Rightsize Your Vetting Process
Organization Members Only
Historically, risk management in philanthropy has considered and highlighted only those risks affecting the funder. However, funders need to consider how their own risk framing might negatively affect applicants, grantees, and the communities being served.
This how-to guide is designed to help you reframe and manage risk by embedding equitable and efficient grantmaking practices into your vetting process and investing in your grantees’ infrastructure. Assessing, tracking, and mitigating risk is tied to many components of the grantmaking lifecycle. When situations traditionally associated with risk are found, work with the nonprofit to understand the context to develop a plan to support them.
