ThankYou
We are incredibly grateful to our donors and partners who supported New America’s work in 2020. As you’ve seen on the preceding pages, the work that we do is diverse and impactful, at both policy and personal levels. Because of the support of our donors, we were able to convene more than 200 events in 2020, to bring together experts, big thinkers and new voices, to uplift local solutions that work, and to give voice to the people most impacted by policy. Because of our donors, we were able to pivot to address the strain that the COVID-19 pandemic has wrought across the policy landscape in America and abroad, and publish more than 100 reports that look into the future towards things to come. We are grateful for their continued, and steadfast, belief in the work that we do, and all that is on the horizon.
With gratitude,
Anne-Marie and Paul
