Overview

This group is a space for funders and philanthropists from across Montana to build connections, to convene peer learning, collaborate on strategies, leverage resources and influence, and advance philanthropic impact in Montana in conjunction with the efforts already established throughout the state.

Eligibility: You do not need to be a Philanthropy Northwest member to join this group. You must be a funder who is based in and/or funds in Montana.
