Members of Philanthropy Network have exclusive access to a variety of tools and services designed to build your knowledge and make your philanthropy more effective. Our goal is to help you broaden your connections—both to information and to colleagues. Here are some of the resources available to members:
Member Directory
We maintain a comprehensive member directory where you can find contact information and profiles of organizations and colleagues who are affiliated with Philanthropy Network.
Peer Learning
Philanthropy Network convenes a number of communities of practice as a means for members to come together around areas of common interest. Groups have formed to consider specific issues or geographic areas, as well as to share best practices with their peers.
Research
Philanthropy Network periodically conducts research to assess giving trends in the Greater Philadelphia region. In partnership with the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia, we recently released “How Employers Give: A Look at Philanthropy and Volunteerism in Philadelphia.” Based on a survey distributed in early 2019 to 100 companies , the report provides a snapshot of how the business community of Philadelphia engages in philanthropy and the scale and scope of those philanthropic activities.
Share Your News
Whether you’d like to share information about special initiatives, requests for proposals, award nominations, job openings or an event that you’re hosting, your membership in Philanthropy Network provides you with a channel to spread the word about your organization’s work. Announcements are posted to our website’s Job & Opportunity Boards, shared via social media and highlighted each week in our newsletter.
Forum Network Knowledgebase
Philanthropy Network is an active member of United Philanthropy Forum, giving our members access to many benefits, including its Knowledgebase, a shared archive of hundreds of resources for grantmakers collected by the Forum and its 60+ members.
The Knowledgebase includes fully indexed and easily searchable resources such as documents, links, reports, sample materials, job postings, and more. Drawing from the best of the Forum’s network, this collective archive harnesses the knowledge of the top philanthropic leaders and practitioners.
