How can we bring different perspectives and approaches to the same table? How can we truly listen to community voices so we can lead together? The Walton Family Foundation invited grantees for conversations to explore what it takes to redefine collaboration.
The Walton Family Foundation is rooted in multiple generations of family, where no voice is louder than the next, and different opinions are valued. We apply this legacy to our work, says Board Chair Annie Proietti.
We have a longstanding tradition of working in diverse communities. While we didn’t use the words diversity, equity and inclusion in the early 90s, that was really the origin and purpose of the family foundation in coming together, says Board Chair Annie Proietti.
The heart of the Walton Family Foundation’s work is creating access to opportunity, especially for those from overlooked and underrepresented communities, says Board Chair Annie Proietti.
The young people of Generation Z are the leaders of the future. But they are often overlooked in decisions about how to solve the problems they’ll inherit. Burdened by the challenges of today and tomorrow, Gen Zers want a new emphasis on listening to all voices in making decisions.
