“Research about how change happens shows that you need the large organizations, but you need the scrappier organizations too,” said Aaron Dorfman, the executive director of the National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy.
“Smaller organizations are often underfunded, and yet they really know how to stretch a dollar and make an impact. Donors who are willing to take a little more time and find those small organizations can make a real difference.”
To find smaller groups, look to see who the local partners of big organizations are, or even do a simple Google search like “racial justice” and “Topeka,” Dorfman suggested.
