Membership

We have created a new kind of philanthropic network that unites regional PSOs’ deep regional roots and connections with national PSOs' deep content knowledge and reach. Given our new network's broad scale and scope, we believe the Forum is poised to make an impact in the philanthropy field unlike any other organization. We are working every day to leverage the full power of our network to advance, inform and support our members and the field.
