Our Role
To deepen and improve its investment in girls of color, the NoVo Foundation engaged Frontline to design and facilitate a process for identifying ways to engage the philanthropic sector. During the launch phase, we served as the lead partner in the initiative, which brought together the latest research, data, news, and insights to promote collective strategizing and partnership across philanthropy. We used targeted interviews and survey development as well as other methods to explore philanthropic barriers and opportunities. We also conducted original research on the issues girls of color face. As a result of this iterative design process, we made recommendations for the NoVo Foundation’s guiding values/principles, core functions, organizational infrastructure, and early implementation.
