Collaborating to Drive Philanthropy Forward

For your convenience, you can download the webinar slides here.

At the beginning of the year, we asked a cross-section of thought leaders across philanthropy to tell us what they expected to see as the top trends in the sector in 2023. One common theme was clear across representatives from membership organizations, consultants, and other change-makers: Collaboration!

Watch now as we check in with three of these leaders to learn how their predicated trends have come to life throughout the year. You will gain insights and inspiration for your own organization as you hear our panelists share their unique perspectives, research, and examples of the most successful collaborations. Whether you’re seeking to partner with fellow funders or nonprofit organizations, collaboration is key to tackling today’s challenges and creating lasting change.
