Family philanthropy poses a unique set of challenges – and rewards. GWP family foundation members gather periodically to exchange strategies on topics such as how to engage and prepare next-generation trustees, develop a succession plan, or address IT issues.
GWP welcomes suggestions for topics this group would like to discuss together.
"Small Can Be Effective" by Paul N. Ylvisaker, resource for Family Foundation Learning Network
On June 13, 2019 GWP’s Family Foundation Network hosted its first gathering.
These guides are designed to help foundations consider how more diverse and inclusive practices might advance their mission by making their work more effective and more reflective of communities served. By highlighting 10 ways foundations can approach diversity, this guide seeks to spark ideas and launch further dialogue.
Through this co-designed webinar, join NCFP and PEAK Grantmaking to learn more about the first Principle for Peak Grantmaking: Tie Practices with Values and hear examples from family voices in NCFP’s network that have worked diligently to tie their own family values to their grantmaking.
In philanthropy, your name can be a branding tool utilized by the foundation to connect and inspire.
