Pallavi's expertise has secured over $3 million in funding through collaborations with organizations such as the Zellerbach Family Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, California Arts Council, San Francisco Arts Commission, East Bay Community Foundation, and the Satterberg Foundation, among others. Her approach is deeply informed by her experiences working with renowned artists, grassroots collectives, and impactful non-profits, ensuring that projects are not only funded but also rooted in accessibility and equity.
