Is there a crisis of faith unfolding in the philanthropic sector?

The work of Freedom Dreams in Philanthropy is, in many ways, a gesture of faith: faith in the capacity of aligned leaders and lovers of justice in the philanthropic sector, faith in ourselves and our questions, and faith in the sector’s ability to answer back.In this episode, Chera and Trinel explore faith not as religious doctrine, but as belief in what is unseen: the trust that transformation is possible even amid uncertainty, backlash, and constraint. We reflect on how faith and agency are intertwined, why real questions matter, and how faith helps us remain courageous, grounded, and aligned along the long arc toward justice.Join us for a conversation rooted in the origins of Freedom Dreams in Philanthropy and the lived and field-gathered insights that continue to shape our work.Watch this episode on Youtube!Find us on Substack @ Freedom Dreams in Philanthropy
