Join Maryland Philanthropy Network's Health Funders Affinity Group for a sharing session to learn how your peers are approaching their giving for 2025 and spotlight your takeaways from 2024 thus far. Together, we’ll reconnect with a focus on addressing health disparities across Maryland. Receive an update on the funders’ collaboration around birth equity, neighborhood nursing pilot, and mental/behavioral health initiatives. During this sharing luncheon, members are invited to update colleagues on your funding priorities and develop deeper partnerships to provide collective impact.
Over the past four years, there have been numerous discussions on how to build trust, stabilize, strengthen, and invest in the fiscal sponsorship ecosystem.
Based on guidance from Maryland Philanthropy Network members, this peer exchange is designed for you to connect with fellow MPN members about their racial equity work, reflect on where your organization is in its journey, and unearth insights to take into your own work.
This peer group is focused on promoting and strengthening a dynamic arts scene in Maryland and engages and educates area funders about existing and emerging opportunities. Members interested in the arts and culture can build relationships with each other; share information; research and ideas; and learn together along with local and national experts.
Member Leadership: Lara Hall, Jacob and Hilda Blaustein Foundation and Steven Skerritt-Davis, Maryland State Arts Council
