Annual Conference Planning Committee
I enjoy every Council on Foundations conference, but I have a special fondness for the Annual Conference. It’s the one time each year that foundations, philanthropists, and grantmakers of all types come together to network and learn from one another. That makes the Annual Conference the perfect place to renew old acquaintances and make new friends.
Our conference theme is "Windows"—a metaphor for encouraging a spirit of transparency, honesty, openness, and candor in the field of philanthropy. In that spirit, we asked for your help in designing a conference that would attract community, family, corporate, independent, and global foundations.
And you’ve delivered! Check out what’s in store: how technology is changing your world...using data to advance your mission...CEO "speed dating"...new approaches to partnerships with corporations…digital age giving...cross-cutting global issues... and many more.
Once we’ve whetted your appetite, register by February 25 to receive a $150 discount!
See you in Philadelphia, April 10-12!
