An Equity Approach Across our Investments:
Q&A with Tim Ortez, Vice President and CFO
The Weingart Foundation’s commitment to equity requires that all of our policies and practices align with our focus on advancing fairness, inclusion and opportunity. Our grantmaking has evolved as a result of this commitment, and we continue to share learnings during this time of transition.
As a part of this equity commitment, we are also looking at the Foundation’s overall investment and financial strategies. How can our investments serve as another way to fulfill our mission? Similarly, we have been exploring how other practices, such as how we select vendors, can be reflective of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
