Today, Mayor Brandon M.
Join us for our next State of the Sector Workgroup meeting featuring the State of the Sector Report with Dr. John Brothers, President of T. Rowe Price Foundation where we will continue our rich field building discussions and follow up on key ideas generated at the September meeting related to top priorities that are emerging as focal points for the collective work of the group. In addition, we will further explore the development of a common language around key concepts and dig deeper into starting points for taking action.

Maryland Philanthropy Network knows philanthropy cannot be successful without our partners in government and the nonprofit community. Therefore, we strive to take some of the mystery out of philanthropy and promote best practices in resource development and funder relationships and contribute to building a stronger nonprofit sector.
This meeting has been postponed. A new date and time will be provided soon. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Join us for what is sure to a be a stimulating and inspiring conversation with Cabinet Secretary Raphael López leading Maryland’s Department of Human Services. Learn about his vision for the department, key priorities, the current opportunity for systems change in our state, and how to work better together to support Maryland communities. Given the intersectional nature of the issues, all MPN members are encouraged to attend.
All MPN members are invited to join the Prenatal-to-Five (PN-5) Affinity Group for a conversation featuring the Bainum Family Foundation's WeVision EarlyEd Initiative, which is a catalyst for making the ideal child care real — as defined by those closest to the system: families, educators and administrators. WeVision EarlyEd is designed to guide necessary conversations and test ideal solutions, beginning with the District of Columbia and then influencing other communities across the nation. Attendees will learn details about the initiative, insights and ideas captured thus far, the Foundation’s investments to begin to test ideal solutions, as well as future plans.

While the public may recognize nonprofits’ inspiring missions and enjoy their positive community impact, they often don’t see that the daily inner workings of running a nonprofit are demanding and complex.
Understanding the Impact of the Changing Funding Landscape
Becoming a dream donor for a nonprofit goes beyond giving money — it means being sincerely engaged, mission-driven and a long-term partner in creating impact.

Maryland Philanthropy Network members are invited to attend a presentation showcasing a summer 2025 research project conducted by five Morehead-Cain Scholars from the University of North Carolina. Through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and case studies, this study sheds light on what makes capital projects in the fields of education and youth development succeed—or fail—and offers actionable insights for funders striving to increase the effectiveness of their investments.
Join Maryland Philanthropy Network for an update from the Governor’s Office for Children about the effort to end child poverty in Maryland through the ENOUGH Initiative.
