Please join us for a gathering of Hawai'i grantmaking professionals on August 13 from 9am-1pm to share your ideas and learn from colleagues to improve your grantmaking practices.

Planned conversations include:

• Reporting Revisted: Whether reports are used for simple accountability purposes, to have good stories for the board, to build a relationship with the grantee, to make future funding or strategy decisions, or to build the sector’s knowledge, the questions we ask should be purposeful – and the information should be used! Hear PEAK Grantmaking’s latest findings about the current status of grant reporting and share your ideas for making reporting meaningful and streamlined – for grantees and grantmakers.

• Equitable Grantmaking Practices: Share your current thinking on how you see grantmaking practices supporting – or hindering – equity. Are there differences in what equitable practices mean in Hawaii given our population diversity?  

• PEAK Grantmaking Updates: Hear about the latest initiatives, tools, and resources from PEAK Grantmaking that can equip, empower, and build your expertise to improve how grants get made in your organization.

Speakers: 

• Michelle Greanias, Executive Director, PEAK Grantmaking
• ​Anela Shimizu, Operations Manager, Hau'oli Mau Loa Foundation as a second speaker
