What do the latest trends in family philanthropy tell us about effectiveness and impact? Join us to dive into select findings from the NCFP Trends 2025 report. You will hear from family foundations about how these trends relate to their impact and effectiveness.  

We’ll cover topics including relationships, accountability and equity, and ask questions like:  

• How are family relationships changing, especially when involving the next generation?  

• How are funders being accountable to their communities? What perspectives are you including in your strategy and decision-making conversations? 

• What changes have you implemented over the past five years, and what are you continuing to learn?
