Unlike our Rising Tide and Uplift gifts, this program gives nonprofits gifts in kind by donating the time of DJHD staff and contractors to work with nonprofits to be more effective at what they do. These organizations basically get access to experts who are able to provide training and resources, all for free. This program seeks to fill in the gaps between our giving cycle and what nonprofits really need. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/18936e0e-531a-442b-baf3-a56a7465ae37/Cancer+Care+with+Matt+%281%29.jpg News - Introducing Manifest: Going Beyond the Giving Cycle - We’ve already started working with our first set of nonprofits for 2025, and we’re excited to see how we’re able to refine and expand this program. We hope to be at the forefront of a paradigm shift in the private foundation sector, where more foundations like us also take up the challenge of going beyond their giving cycle.

Mobilizing quickly, Heifer Honduras began putting together a plan to bring relief to the communities they have become tied to. One of the first steps was putting in calls for emergency funds to acquire and transport aid to a region with devastated infrastructure. The Deena Jo Heide-Diesslin Foundation was honored to be able to answer one of those calls with an emergency allocation to Heifer Honduras. Heifer’s work with family farmers around the world has directly impacted thousands of women and created communities where they can thrive, so it was a no-brainer to use the DJHD Foundation’s small emergency fund to aid in restoring those communities. https://www.thedjhdfoundation.com/news/announcing-our-2024-rising-tide-recipient monthly 0.5 2024-12-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/0e5af6c7-765d-4cdd-8ff4-cc40ac21570f/Rising+Tide+2024+Recipient.png News - Announcing our 2024 Rising Tide Recipient - “In Deena’s work as a social worker, she advocated for the use of proper emergency healthcare for women and girls in dire situations. No other organization is better at providing that care across the world than MSF.” — Matthew Motet McCord, Executive Director DJHD Foundation https://www.thedjhdfoundation.com/news/teaching-fishing-with-challenge-match-gifts monthly 0.5 2024-06-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/f3c09d3e-e801-43b4-bfb6-483c320ee920/David+picture.png News - "Teaching Fishing" with challenge match gifts “We all know the saying, ‘Give a person a fish, and they’ll eat for a day. Teach a person to fish, and they’ll eat for a lifetime.’ It was always Deena’s desire that we focus on ‘teaching fishing,’ rather than just giving monetary resources,” said David Diesslin, Chairman of the DJHD Foundation Board of Directors. “The DJHD Foundation doesn’t want to just swoop in and save the day, for a day. We want our impact to be multiplied beyond what we can do.” https://www.thedjhdfoundation.com/news/litte-trip-with-big-impact monthly 0.5 2024-06-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/fe1f18de-b58b-46af-82de-bc9fde03a305/Image_20240427_215708_406+%281%29.jpeg News - A little trip with a big impact Part of our process when considering new nonprofits for our Rising Tide or Uplift gifting programs is getting to know the organization and what they do for the communities they serve. This could involve phone call or Zoom meetings with the staff, maybe some in-person meetings, but our goal is to actually see how they do their work in serving their community. So we were delighted when our Executive Director was invited to visit Heifer International in Arkansas, since they are currently under consideration for our Rising Tide Gift. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/2ba1b8b6-3b54-48c5-962f-43bf1187797e/Image_20240426_214709_780+%281%29.jpeg News - A little trip with a big impact “It’s one thing to hear about the work that a nonprofit does and what it takes to make a difference, but it’s another thing entirely to actually see it in person,” said Matthew Motet McCord, Executive Director of The Deena Jo Heide-Diesslin Foundation. “Seeing the operations in person gave me a whole new perspective on how we can best help support the amazing work they are doing all over the world.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/c0195f01-bb57-4009-9605-35f0456c405b/Image_20240426_214708_604+%281%29.jpeg News - A little trip with a big impact Though the trip only lasted three days, it was packed with information and experiences for the guests. Heifer International associates like Ardyth Neill, Strategic Advisor for the Heifer Foundation, shared Heifer International’s vision in their own words. They laid out the nonprofit’s strategies and values, as where as places they still want to improve and grow. Matthew spent a lot of time talking one-on-one with as many people as he could, getting a sense that every person there was committed to Heifer’s values and dedicated to making a difference with their given areas of expertise. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/d17cd516-c4e1-4cb7-affe-8accef64c08a/Image_20240427_215707_967+%281%29.jpeg News - A little trip with a big impact The person who impacted Matthew the most was a coffee farmer who was helped by Heifer International and now continues to work to help other coffee farmers around the world. He gave a presentation on how even “fair trade” coffee can still exploit the actual coffee growers and explained what is actually needed for properly and ethically sourced coffee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/de2cb6b5-fee5-4805-a70b-5bb5b4962188/Image_20240427_215708_586+%281%29.jpeg News - A little trip with a big impact This presentation was so impactful for Matthew that immediately upon returning to The Deena Jo Heide-Diesslin Foundation offices, he switched all of the office coffee machines to only use ethically sourced coffee. Even now, Matthew and the DJHD Foundation Board of Directors are looking into investing in even more ethically sourced coffee opportunities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/732c1eb7-4538-4242-80c6-e1ba57ce039b/Image_20240426_214746_918+%281%29.jpeg News - A little trip with a big impact These are the kind of ripple effects that we look for in our Rising Tide recipients. Organizations that are so dedicated to making a difference in their communities that even a short visit from some guests can have greater effects in unexpected ways. Not just “giving someone a fish” or “teaching someone to fish” but instilling the love of fishing in anyone they come across. That’s how we create a Rising Tide that truly lifts any and all ships. https://www.thedjhdfoundation.com/news/last-chance-for-submitting-applications-for-the-2024-giving-cycle monthly 0.5 2024-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661e8f5d39dca01bb9d34657/10cb4965-9e78-431c-86e9-fbe118eec255/Deadline.jpg News - Last chance for submitting applications for the 2024 Giving Cycle This is the last week that 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations can submit an application for the 2024 Giving Cycle.
