Philanthropy Ohio and Resilia Partner to Strengthen Ohio Nonprofits Through Funder Program

Partnership will facilitate access to Resilia’s coaching and technology platform to funders and the nonprofits they support in Ohio and beyond

New Orleans, La. - Resilia, a social enterprise with offices in New Orleans and New York City, and Philanthropy Ohio have come together to enable Ohio funders to more effectively and efficiently strengthen local nonprofits.

Philanthropy Ohio brings funders together, leads key discussions, and taps the wisdom of local experts and national thought leaders to bring members the best practices in philanthropy through high-quality programs and knowledge resources. 

As part of the Resilia partnership, Philanthropy Ohio will recommend its members participate in the Resilia Funder Program, which enables funders to go “beyond the grant” by providing nonprofits 1:1 coaching, and access to Resilia’s SaaS technology platform delivering on-demand training, capacity-building resources, and fundraising solutions. Through the program, Philanthropy Ohio members will also have access to Resilia’s Elevate network, a national learning and action initiative focused on equity and elevating the capacity and voices of BIPOC-led and BIPOC-serving grassroots organizations. 

“Philanthropy Ohio is pleased to partner with Resilia,” said Deborah Aubert Thomas, President & CEO of Philanthropy Ohio. “We look forward to working together to bring this amazing resource to nonprofits across Ohio through our funder members.”

"Resilia’s work aligns with Philanthropy Ohio’s mission to lead and equip its members to become the most effective partners for change,” said Sevetri Wilson, Resilia Founder and CEO. “We look forward to providing Ohio funders and the nonprofits they support with the tools, knowledge, and resources to make an even greater impact in the communities they serve.”
