About the Forum

The National Forum on Family Philanthropy is an intentional gathering of donors and communities, where we encourage thoughtful discussions, address the limits and implications of our practices, beliefs, and social constructs, and generate new solutions. Together, we’ll learn how to align our intentions with effective practice to fulfill our philanthropic purpose.
