2023 ANNUAL REPORT
Equity
CMF seeks to embolden and equip Michigan philanthropy in the relentless pursuit of equitable systems and the embrace of inclusive diversity.
Throughout 2023, CMF members engaged in deep equity-centered learning events, accessed new resources through the CMF website and shared their own equity journeys in our blog and video series for shared learning across our vibrant network of Michigan philanthropy. These efforts continue in 2024, as CMF supports all in our membership in advancing your equity journeys, wherever you may be in discovery, dialogue or dedicated action.
Our CMF Community
In 2023, as part of our 50th anniversary video series, several CMF members shared learnings from their equity journeys, what equity means in the communities they serve and what is needed to support our communities in the next 50 years and beyond.

“I think an equity journey can look really different depending upon the makeup of your surrounding community. How do we even define what this means in the context of what our communities can understand, build their awareness, and then drive their personal actions and organizational actions to be more inclusive?”
