Council on Foundations honors exceptional foundations, philanthropic leaders

Several grantmaking institutions and foundation leaders have been honored by the Council on Foundations for their service and commitment to philanthropy and the overall impact their efforts have had on the common good. The Building Together Award: The Innovia Foundation. This new award recognizes philanthropic organizations, initiatives and/or collaboratives that invest in and/or adopt approaches that help us connect and collaborate across differences, the COF said. “Whether convening residents for courageous conversations, empowering local leaders through councils and summits, supporting rural storytelling and vision setting, or funding community gatherings to bridge divides, Innovia consistently demonstrates intentionality, depth, and measurable impact in connecting and collaborating across differences,” the Council said.
