Join Maryland Philanthropy Network for a peer learning exchange for funders supporting environmental and sustainability issues in Maryland! We take some time to integrate our learnings, share what we are thinking about and focusing on, and discuss our plans for the coming year. Lightly structured, these peer-to-peer exchange events are designed to integrate and learn from others in philanthropy through facilitation of the following: strategy sharing and exchange of ideas around what other funders are working on, stimulating new ways of thinking by sharing learnings and creating an environment conducive to discovery among the community of funders, and relationship building.
A message to the Maryland Philanthropy Network membership from our Interim President and CEO Kevin McHugh.
Each year brings new opportunities for the Baltimore Community Foundation (BCF) to grow its presence and increase its positive impact in Baltimore City and Baltimore County. In 2023, after a period of significant growth at the foundation and after the intensity of the first couple of years of the COVID-19 pandemic had passed, the foundation turned its focus inward to develop and launch Inspire, its new strategic plan.
Hosted and presented by United Philanthropy Forum in partnership with the Council on Foundations and Independent Sector, Foundations on the Hill is intentionally designed as a forward-looking advocacy conference and experience. After a year marked by rapid policy shifts, heightened scrutiny, and growing demands on charitable institutions, philanthropy is gathering to collectively strengthen the sector’s independence and its ability to serve communities in the years ahead.
