Maryland Philanthropy Network invites CEOs, Presidents, and Executive Directors to deepen relationships with regional peers while sharing and aligning grantmaking strategy, practices, and reporting. The session will begin with networking opportunities followed by a roundtable discussion and, time permitting, close with some smaller conversations in breakout rooms.

Join Maryland Philanthropy Network’s Education Funders Affinity Group for a two-part series on tutoring programs. The first discussion will take place with three of Baltimore’s largest tutoring providers focused on literacy. We'll be joined by Lindsay Sullivan, Amplify; Rudi Zellman, The Literacy Lab; and Jeffrey Zwillenberg, Reading Partners. Come learn about what is happening with literacy tutoring programs, what those programs looked like before the pandemic and going forward, possibilities around what’s needed to scale those programs, and ways that philanthropy can help.

Join Maryland Philanthropy Network’s Education Funders and Prenatal to Five Affinity Groups to learn about "mixed delivery systems" of care that connect across multiple programs, providers, and settings (including public schools and community-based organizations) that can be supported with a combination of public funds and private funds. Our speakers will share possible avenues for a system of mixed delivery in Baltimore and across Maryland along with potential next steps. Space will be created for dialogue between funders about steps you can take together around early care and education.

Join Maryland Philanthropy Network's Education Funders Affinity Group for our quarterly peer-to-peer exchange and Happy Hour! Come prepared to share information about which grant are you excited about; what has changed with your funding during COVID and what has stayed the same; and what have you sustained that will help your grantees more or changed how your board funds?
