SAFSF is hosting COVID-19 response calls and programming and curating resources to facilitate collaboration among the philanthropic and investment communities in the food and agriculture space around COVID-19 response and recovery. Stay tuned to your inboxes for more information about these and other opportunities to engage, or contact us if you are a funder interested in getting involved with our network.

While we are deep in preparations for the 2020 SAFSF Forum, we are actively monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 pandemic as new information becomes available. We are mindful of the health and safety of potential attendees, host organizations’ staff, service personnel, and others we will all come in contact with. We are also mindful of the economic impact our Forum decision will have on the Kansas City and broader community.

SAFSF plans to make a decision about how to move forward with the 2020 Forum on Wednesday, April 15 and will share with the network how we are moving forward within a few days of that decision. Should it not be safe or advisable to host the Forum as we typically do, we are exploring a range of creative options to ensure that we are able to provide the support, networking, and learning spaces that are so vital to this community and that happen at the Forum each year. If you have thoughts or suggestions to share, please contact the Forum team at [email protected]
