    Non-monetary grantmaking traditionally includes in-kind grants of land, equipment, or free space.

Topics: How did your organization decide to provide non-monetary assistance? What shaped the conversation? What is your organization’s process for making and tracking non-monetary grants?

Topics Covered: How is second wave funding adapting to lessons learned and community needs revealed by the pandemic? What changes in funding strategy or priority has data revealing the disproportionate effects of COVID-19 on vulnerable populations caused, if any?
