The Center for Effective Philanthropy provides data, feedback, programs, and insights to help individual and institutional donors improve their effectiveness. We do this work because we believe effective donors, working collaboratively and thoughtfully, can profoundly contribute to creating a better and more just world.

The Trust-Based Philanthropy Project envisions a world where relationships are built on vulnerability, transparency, and humility; where community and nonprofit leaders are valued, supported, and trusted; and where funders bring an awareness of power and equity to their grantmaking. In this future, funders work alongside communities and nonprofits to understand what is needed and how they can creatively and expansively leverage their assets to advance positive change.

The National Center for Family Philanthropy promote learning and action through their community, programs, and services. They build knowledge and expertise to support your philanthropic journey.
