“We have done a lot of community outreach over the last year. We are now saying – let’s find new ways to support organizations that are organically part of the community that are run by black, and indigenous people of color instead of always thinking about what is the easiest and biggest organization we can work with.

…How do we have a hybrid approach, where we are saying the big efforts that support 60,000 people a week are very important and so are the ones that support very specific communities? We have a lot of experience with this over the last year, and I feel personally grateful for this. This has shown me more deeply what different communities experience, and how we can do a better job serving these communities.”
