SUMMARY:Withstanding the Assault: Strategies for Philanthropy to Support Frontline Organizations and the Communities Most Impacted
DESCRIPTION:Even the most pessimistic among us were not adequately prepared for this past year’s multi-pronged federal attack on the health and wellbeing of disadvantaged farmers\, new immigrants\, SNAP recipients\, and the organizations that advocate for these diverse communities and the ecosystems that we depend on. These challenges have been ratcheted up in 2026\, with a farm economy spiraling toward crisis and skyrocketing food insecurity compounded by ICE activities in Minneapolis and other cities. This webinar\, organized by the Food & Farm Democracy Initiative (FFDI)\, is an opportunity for funders to hear from frontline organizations\, some that are focused on policy advocacy and others that are addressing the hardships created by this Administration. One year in\, panelists will share how their organizations and communities are responding to support farmers\, ranchers\, and families and how they are anticipating what comes next. These panelists\, as well as leaders from the FFDI founding organizations (National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition\, RAFI\, Red Clover Collaborative\, and Regenerative Agriculture Foundation)\, will also ground-truth how philanthropy can effectively respond to this reality.  \n\n\n\nIn addition to FFDI\, this webinar is co-sponsored by the Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems Funders\, Health & Environment Funders Network\, Rural Climate Partnership\, and the Platform for Agriculture and Climate Transformation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohn Benedict \n\n\n\nFarmer\, Desert Sky Produce \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nZoe Hollomon\n\n\n\nMidwest Farmers of Color Collective \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohnElla Holmes\n\n\n\nKansas Black Farmers Association \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHannah Kinney Smith\n\n\n\nPasa Sustainable Agriculture
