"We are practitioners of participatory grantmaking, an approach where people with lived experience of issues of injustice and inequality decide where the philanthropic dollars that affect their lives go. This structural change in decision-making turns around a historically unequal system that has conflated wealth with wisdom. We work to center the voices of marginalized communities through philanthropy. We seek not only to hear the voices, but to share power through decision-making on grants."
We are proud and grateful for the great support and collaboration with our peers in the Participatory Grantmaking Collectieve!

Work/travel opportunity / support stripping community
10+ performers needed for Dutch Design Week
I just wanted to extend the invitation to come visit/work in Eindhoven for a week along with free housing and bikes to get you around! I’ll be making a pop up strip club for my graduation show. It will be a high tech strip club with: a digital payment system, interactive stage, fashionable wearables that communicate with customers app and stage.
I wanted to use this as a moment to create awareness around sex work and workers rights.
What I can offer in return: Press, housing, bike, and hopefully at least 70+ euros a day. This is the first test so I am unsure how much money customers will really spend and how enthusiastic the audience will be. But I do know there will be nothing else like this during the exhibition so I know it can be successful! The app keeps track of exactly how much money everyone has made individually and there is no percentage taken from your earnings. Although we do ask if you would like to donate 10% to sex worker foundations - it is not required at this moment.
I would like to have at least 2 people dancing a day - there will also be a drag performances/ voguing and possible opportunities to talk about stripping/sex work in a Q&A format if anyone is interested in something like that since it is an exhibition.
DDW: over 500,000 visitors daily
Hours: 10am-5pm
Sat. Oct. 19 - Sun. Oct. 27th 2019
Located in Eindhoven, The Netherlands
If you are interested please send me a DM and I can tell you much, much more about the project and general information.
Thank you!
