Giving Together: The Rise of Collaborative Philanthropy

This session provides an overview of the collaborative philanthropy landscape, outlining core models such as pooled funds, giving circles, learning networks, and funder collaboratives. Panelists will discuss the strategic rationale for collaboration, the advantages of shared resources and learning, and important considerations related to structure, participation, and alignment. The conversation will offer a clear framework for understanding collaborative giving and practical guidance for donors evaluating whether and how to participate. Read about our keynote speakers here.
