Philanthropic Advice Referral Network

Workforce & economic development

Organizations focused on workforce and economic development help people overcome barriers to economic opportunity. Donors can support organizations that are providing young adults, unemployed or underemployed adults, and historically underserved populations with job training, career on-ramps, and small business support. They also help transform education, employment, and talent advancement systems to be more equitable.

If you are interested in developing a grant recommendation strategy in this area of focus, either contact your Fidelity Charitable Philanthropic Strategist or one of the advisory firms listed below.
