This practice note highlights a case study of leveraging strategic partnerships through trust-based philanthropy, a set of practices rooted in values, relationship building, mutual learning, and equity. It describes the motivations, planning, and execution of a symposium organized by, and held for, a Foundation and four of its grantees. The symposium led to the development of sustained pathways between and among the partners, resulting in productive collaborations and shared projects. This case study is shared to illustrate the argument that it is the responsibility of funders, and certainly in their self-interest, to eliminate competition between organizations to whom they provide financial resources and support. By facilitating trust and collaboration, funders are uniquely positioned to foster collective, higher-impact work.

通过基于信任的慈善事业利用战略伙伴关系的案例研究

本实践说明重点介绍了通过基于信任的慈善事业利用战略伙伴关系的案例研究，这是一系列植根于价值观、关系建设、相互学习和公平的实践。它描述了由一个基金会及其四个受资助者组织并举办的研讨会的动机、计划和执行。研讨会促成了合作伙伴之间持续发展的途径，从而实现了富有成效的合作和共享项目。分享这个案例研究是为了说明这样一个论点：资助者有责任消除其提供财政资源和支持的组织之间的竞争，当然也符合他们的自身利益。通过促进信任和协作，资助者在促进集体、更具影响力的工作方面处于独特的地位。
