March 2023 - Solidaire

Solidaire Network’s 10-Year Strategy is a roadmap to liberate wealth for movements to build lasting left power in the United States. Our new strategy was inspired by our 5-Year Retrospective 2018-2022 and Solidaire Action’s Movement Elder-in-Residence Linda Burnham’s Project2050. We embark on this strategic direction with internal rigor and the capacity to learn, innovate, grow, and transform.

Through donor organizing and social movements, we can transform our society so that every community has the resources to flourish. To redistribute stolen wealth and build systems where we care for one another, we must work together strategically and sustainably.

We know that we have a strategic lane to occupy as a donor network, and that through this work, we can not only fundamentally transform philanthropic practices, but impact the flow of resources for a generation.

In a ten-year time frame, it is possible to build new left power and influence in the United States that can have an outsized impact on national and international scales. Communities with access to wealth must join the fight as resource organizers within their networks to liberate wealth for movements. We must match the commitment, calculation, and strategic clarity of our movements.

Having a strategic, long-term view of the future, we do so much more than react to the here and now. Instead, we are invited into a long arc of possibilities that our actions in the present day make possible. As you read this strategy, you will see that we are not alone on this path of fighting for liberation but are bolstered by a network connected by courage, trust, and commitment.
