Our signature programs include...

Our Annual Conference, the premiere gathering of Northwest grantmakers. Held each fall at locations throughout six states we serve, it offers high quality programming and intensive learning in a relaxed venue.

This year we are pleased to offer again, back by popular demand, Financial Analysis 201: Assessing Financial Health of Nonprofits, a program designed for foundation staff and trustees who know the basics, but want to learn more about this essential knowledgebase for successful grantmaking. Contact Sue Bennett at sbennett@philanthropynw.org for more information.

Best Practices in Grantmaking: Essential Skills and Strategies, a nationally developed curriculum presented by Northwest experts. Contact Sue Bennett at sbennett@philanthropynw.org for more information about dates for this program.

We hold regular briefings and workshops and support funder networks organized by issue, geography and giving style.  Learn more about our programs  and services for Family Foundations, and Corporate Giving programs and about our events.
