The Funder Safeguarding Initiative provides free access to practical resources for the development of safeguarding protocol and policy.
FADICA believes that philanthropy must boldly proclaim the priority of safeguarding.
By working together, funders and grantee partners can educate their communities, normalize safeguarding best practices, and change organizational culture.
Inspired by a commitment to the sacredness of human life and dignity as promoted through the Catholic social tradition, the Funder Safeguarding Initiative was designed to engage funders and their grantee partners as they work to develop, build, and sustain safeguarding best practices within philanthropic, non-profit, and faith-based organizations.
“Safeguarding can be a shared value between funder and grantee…
By normalizing this conversation, by tackling this issue together as a community, we can contribute to overall culture change.”
