We’re building more resilient, equitable and inclusive communities through our work in three areas:
Many missions.
One community.
United for change.
Through shared learning, networking and action, we connect Northwest philanthropies of all types.
Strengthening Philanthropy
To increase philanthropy’s impact, we deliver trainings and tools that build knowledge and skills, and we bring organizations together to share ideas and best practices.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Together with our national consulting arm, The Giving Practice, we offer diversity, equity and inclusion programs and resources to support living these values and creating opportunity for all.
Policy and Advocacy
We engage on policy issues that matter to philanthropy and to communities, like ensuring every person is counted in the 2020 Census, and we empower members to become more effective advocates.
Thriving Communities Grants
Philanthropy Northwest invites grant applications for our new Thriving Communities program, in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Over three years, we plan to invest $40 million in tribal nations and communities in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington who have been hardest hit by environmental changes.
