Are you a shareholder? Then you can be a shareholder activist[6]The Funding Exchange has joined with a group of over 40
institutional investors, led by Walden Asset Management and AFSCME, to
introduce a set of shareholder resolutions to 40 companies urging them
to move away from business-as-usual.

These resolutions would require these corporations to report on
lobbying expenditures, including indirect funding of lobbying through
trade associations. [7]Here's an update on FEX's shareholder activism.

[8]We’re all familiar with the many issues caused by the
2010 Citizens United Supreme Court decision. It will be many years (and
many election cycles) before we see any changes to the new electoral
landscape the decision has created. What can we do in the short term?

Maxim Thorne has some intriguing answers. On Tuesday, July 10th from
5:00 – 6:15 pm EST, Funding Exchange will present a political education
call: Citizens United: What’s Possible for Donors and Activists.
During the call, Maxim, who holds teaching positions at Yale College,
Yale Law School and Yale School of Management, will explore his
provocative idea that nonprofits can and should begin to think of
financial power and freedom of speech differently. He’ll explain why
nonprofits must stop ignoring the positive and powerful implications of
Citizens United.

A Call for Housing Justice
[10]Earlier this year, Funding Exchange launched
political education programming for our stakeholders. Our first
conference call, in February, brought together housing activists,
donors and people in philanthropy to talk about bright spots in the
struggle against foreclosure in our country right now.

There’s a strong movement for housing justice on many fronts, and this
movement needs support from people who want to get to the root causes
of the housing crisis. [11]Becky Rafter describes the movement for
housing justice

Towards a Stronger National Network[12]My connections with
leaders throughout the Funding Exchange network give me a chance to see
how each of the 16 member funds are engaging more people with emerging
social justice movements. And it gives me a chance to bring people
together to share what’s working best in their communities.

For example, member funds are developing youth-led grantmaking
programs. [13]Lucretia John on the Funding Exchange Network.
