Systemic change requires intersectional approaches and Lachiwana engages change at all levels of organizing. Our internal operations are intentionally designed to adjust for the impacts of global crisis, social injustices, and prioritize the decentralization of power. Our fundraising efforts are embedded with radical transformation of decolonizing wealth through financial literacy among our constituents, and power + privilege accountability among our adjacent philanthropists. In these times, it is critical to cultivate and culture and narrative centering the health of our people and constituents. Lastly, our communities need to feel connected during this time of social, political, economic, and global unrest. Lachiwana’s impact strengthens connections, disseminates resources, and educates.
