Associate Director Hilary McConnaughey Page and Director @JohnSchellhase wrote a case study that details The @LEGO Foundation’s ideation, design, and implementation processes for its novel grantmaking mechanism. In 2024, @LEGOFoundation launched an acute humanitarian response mechanism that empowers partners to act much more swiftly than previously, allowing for funding deployment within four weeks of a partner’s request, and in turn, bringing enhanced safety, education, and resilience to children in global humanitarian crises.

we are a constellation of losses
a symphonic rush
of dreams chasing dreams.” Thrilled to have my poem ‘Contemplating the Death of my Infant Son’ in the @PsalteryLyre . Thank you @millie_tullis.
