Lindsay Hill

Lindsay Hill is a mother, partner, daughter, granddaughter, sister, and doula. Most importantly, she is an accountable future ancestor. Lindsay co-founded Threshold Philanthropy to redefine philanthropy as holistic community care and reparative investment, supporting Black and Indigenous women in a liberatory and healing culture, and partnering with and resourcing the movements, communities, leaders, healers, and artists who are dreaming and building the liberated world they know is coming. Prior to Threshold Philanthropy, Lindsay was the director of diversity, equity, and inclusion and the K-12 education program officer at the Raikes Foundation. Before entering philanthropy, Lindsay spent four years as the founding executive director of Teach For America—Washington. Lindsay began her career as a fourth-grade teacher in Brooklyn and then supported new teachers in three of New York City’s boroughs. Lindsay was also the director of training and support for the “I Have a Dream” Foundation. She proudly sits on the board of directors for the Transformational Travel Council. She holds a bachelor’s degree in sociology and public policy from Pomona College and a master’s degree in teaching from Pace University. Their goal is to build a space where activists across different social movements can heal, vision, co-conspire, and reacquaint themselves with animals and nature. She is also building a space where Black, Indigenous, and people of color birth workers, birthing parents, and families, can convene, learn, and welcome new life into the world amongst the trees.
