Meet-the-Donors: Corporate Foundations & Giving Programs

About

Join Philanthropy Massachusetts for an all-star lineup of representatives from a variety of corporate giving programs or corporate foundations!

Whether you are new to development or a seasoned pro, Meet-the-Donors is a great opportunity to engage in a collegial discussion and get firsthand info about the grantmaking process.

The program includes an opportunity to connect and network with your fellow attendees and pose questions to the grantmaking panelists. The goal is to help demystify the grantmaking process by sharing the particulars of each funder on the panel as well as some larger takeaways for how to best cultivate and approach funders.

Following an introduction to the panel and their organizations' funding priorities, participants will work with their peers to generate questions for the panel.
