Resources for Radical Funders
We’ve gathered some content that will expand your notion of philanthropy, giving, funding, channeling of resources into causes with political impact.

No return on investment, except deep systemic shifts. Dive in (and if you have great, relevant content to share, write to us at: ivan@guerrillafoundation.org).
