Your legacy begins here.

BecoMe a Partner in change

We can create powerful change together.

We believe that powerful change starts with you — your unwavering need to disrupt the status quo, your ability to make meaning from your life, and your work and build it into a long-standing legacy that creates radical change. 

We’ve found that we can create even more radical change when we partner together as People of Color. Each of our programs brings together people from across industries to empower Joy-Based Philanthropists and Non-Profit Organizations.

Through our webinars, roundtables, and events, we gather individuals, organizations, and networks that share our passion for revolutionizing the world of philanthropy and provide opportunities for connection and education.

Choose from any one of our upcoming events and workshops to learn more at Layo Partners and start your philanthropic journey.

What does it mean to be a philanthropist? How can we transition from annual giving, donating at fundraising events, and making the occasional charitable gift to building a philanthropic portfolio that creates meaningful change, brings you joy, and establishes a longstanding legacy? In this powerful session with Layo Philanthropic Partners Founder, Funmilayo Brown, you’ll unlock the power of philanthropy and leave with the knowledge and inspiration to craft a deeply meaningful and effective philanthropic strategy. 

In this 60-minute live webinar, you’ll have the opportunity to discover our Joy-Based Giving philosophy and build a plan for your own legacies of giving that aligns seamlessly with your overall financial plan.

Organizational Think Tank

As a non-profit organization, you have the vision and a strong mission, but strategically, you’re still seeing opportunities for growth and change in your fundraising efforts, board development, or organization efficiency.

Each month, we choose a different topic to help you better navigate your world and continually build your organizational capacity.
