At Solidaire, we believe that every individual is sacred and that every one of us has a strategic role in building a more just and sustainable world.

Solidaire is an intergenerational and cross-class community reimagining philanthropy to mobilize unprecedented solidarity to the front lines of social justice movements. Together, we seek to expand what it means to be a funder, whether as an individual, through a family foundation or within a large philanthropic institution.

As a network, we are more powerful than we could ever be on our own.

If you are an individual with wealth, a foundation trustee or foundation staff and you are looking for a community of belonging that will push you to expand the meaning of being a funder and provide pathways for you to deepen your connections to movements for justice.... Hello! We'd love to get to know you.

Learn more about joining Solidaire by visiting SolidaireNetwork.org or dropping us a message.

Most wealthy progressives give a little, feel guilty, and stay on the sidelines. That's not giving strategy, it's giving failure.

#TransformativeDonorOrganizing is a radical new guide by Isaac Lev Szmonko from Solidaire Network that shows how to build political homes where wealthy people become lifelong movement comrades, redistributing the majority of their wealth, leveraging their power for Left strategy, and organising other rich people to do the same.

No more shame. No more hiding. No more tiny donations.
Time to get to unlocking billions for working-class-led #movements.

We're coming to NYC and Philly next month! It's been amazing to get to do a handful of book talks with @diaryofababa and @mariansmoore, as well as contributors to the anthology like @winonaladuke, @chereonchen and @v.mijo.

These events are some of the few spaces I've seen where I've gotten to talk openly and publicly about this work of organizing the rich toward justice. And oh wow, it's time. It's past time to create the cross-class solidarity we need to rebuild and repair.

Get your Philly tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/philly-book-talk-free-the-people-to-free-the-money-to-free-the-people-tickets-1988571852943

Spread the word, invite your friends, come and celebrate the publication of this anthology...and Alex's 50th bday!!

At each stop, we'll be in conversation with a dear friend and colleague. In NYC, with Ingrid Benedict and in Philly with @nigelmcharles. And at each stop, we'll be joined by great co-sponsoring orgs like @northstarfund, @breadrosesfund, @resourcegeneration, @liberationventures, @donorsofcolor, and @confluencephilanthropy, @kctphilly.

Hope to see you there!

Rich People Role Models/Classy Class Traitors #425

Stanley Levinson was a wealthy Jewish businessman from New York, who helped manage the Communist Party’s finances before shifting his financial prowess towards funding the Black Freedom Struggle. Together with his comrades Ella Baker and Bayard Rustin, he helped channel support to local movements in the South, hoping that one of them would light a spark that could set off a regional movement. When the Montgomery Bus Boycott erupted, these three master strategists provided everything from funding and networking, to the direct mentorship of Martin Luther King. The spark was lit.

From that moment on, Stanley became Martin’s invisible confidant…the man who Martin would call if he woke up at 3am with emotions he needed to process, or with new ideas to explore. Stanley did everything from ghostwriting for Martin, to doing his taxes, to being a relentless fundraiser for the movement. In a letter to Martin refusing payment for his services, Stanley wrote that he valued using his financial acumen “not for myself but for socially constructive ends. The liberation struggle is the most positive and rewarding area of work anyone could experience.”

Thank you @showingupforracialjustice, @abby_giuseppe and Lynn Burnett for making this beautiful piece of movement art and inspiration.

Money talks. The far right is shouting.

Meanwhile, 'progressives' are whispering, “can we circle back on this?”

Dive into our new substack piece which features some of our funder friends & allies (@weavingliberation, @mamacashfund, @dalanfund, safe passage fund, @blackfeministfund, @solidairenetwork @womendonors) as well as blueprints on how to organise wealth from the Block & Build frontlines of the US dystopia.

Promise that it's more uplifting than it seems..

And yes dear cynics, of course it is easy to call philanthropy a neoliberal karma-tumor, but puritanism may obfuscate actually radical, life-sustaining ways of moving money in the here and now.

Promise that it's more uplifting than it seems..

And yes dear cynics, of course it is easy to call philanthropy a neoliberal karma-tumor, but puritanism may obfuscate actually radical, life-sustaining ways of moving money in the here and now.

Solidaire Board member Alan Preston has a powerful new piece in the National Center for Family Philanthropy: “Overcoming Barriers to Giving: My Personal Story of Wealth Redistribution.”

In this article, Alan offers a clear call to philanthropy to do more in this moment — naming the urgency of redistributing wealth at a time when crises are deepening and too many funders are holding back.
By sharing his personal journey of redistributing a multimillion-dollar inheritance and resourcing movements through the Arch Community Fund, he sheds light on the emotional and cultural barriers that often stand in the way — and what it takes to move toward more values-aligned action.

“Through my personal and professional experience in philanthropy, I believe that the redistribution of wealth and power can heal our hearts and our world. As donors and funders, we must confront the obstacles holding us back from giving like we want to win. Now is the rainy day we have been waiting for.”

This thoughtful article is a powerful tool in moving donors from intention to action.

Seattle. How I love you! You were my late twenties and early thirties home. 5 years. You taught me so much. You helped me learn how to be all in. I met so many of my lifetime loves.

And now you’ve hosted the third ever book talk for Free the People to Free the Money to Free the People. 🎉 🙌 📖 🌳 🌊 🎉 Thank you for coming out and celebrating with @diaryofababa, @v.mijo, @chereonchen and I.

Thanks to our cosponsors @svp.seattle, @donorsofcolor, @inataifdn and Progress Alliance of Washington.

Photos below from our third ever book talk, this time in my second home of Seattle, Washington with so many leaders, friends and colleagues I deeply respect and cherish in this work. I particularly loved the chance to share the stage with Seattle based contributors to the anthology, Mijo and Sharon.

Thank you to everyone who helped make it possible!

May we build the cross-class coalitions we need to repair and rebuild.

This publication marks a milestone for our network and contributes to the broader ecosystem of donor and movement organizing. Hear from Isaac Lev Szmonko and Rajasvini Bhansali in conversation about our approach and methodology, and how it is building a powerful base of donors and philanthropic leaders moving hundreds of millions of dollars to grassroots movements.

What if “giving back” was never really giving back? Wealth has historically been extracted from land and labor, from communities that never saw it return. And philanthropy wasn’t built to fix that. Solidarity Philanthropy starts by naming this honestly and asking what it would actually mean to return what was taken and “re-make” philanthropy... so that everyone benefits.#SolidarityPhilanthropy #GiveBack #Philanthropy
