Programs

GFE programs address the unique concerns of education funders. Programs feature leading thinkers and practitioners from education and philanthropy, plus valuable discussion and networking with colleagues.

Most GFE events are open to GFE members and non-member foundation representatives, creating a candid “funders only” environment. Solicitation of funds is not allowed at GFE programs.

  • Program offerings. An overview of the types of programs we offer.
  • Events calendar. Details of upcoming events and highlights from past programs.
  • Annual conference. The central source of information on the nation’s only conference dedicated to education philanthropy.
  • Study groups. Information about communities of grantmakers that meet to discuss common grantmaking interests.
  • Design a GFE program. Help for GFE members who want to organize briefings and study groups.
