Manage episode 407104578 series 3557768
Join Shari Finnell, editor of the Not-for-profit News, during this interview with Tony Mason, President and CEO of the Indianapolis Urban League. The nonprofit is partnering with the National Urban League in overseeing a $100 million initiative that addresses the numerous challenges facing the city’s African American community.
Lilly Endowment issued the place-based grant in 2020 — at a time when the pandemic further exacerbated economic disparities in minority communities. Tony talks about the foundational work for the initiative, and why it will take a massive effort, including more collaborations among nonprofits, to reach the goal of racial equity in Indianapolis.
