Eligibility and Registration Information

Registration eligibility for the National Forum is limited to participants directly involved in a family philanthropy, as this allows us to create a space that fosters true peer-to-peer learning and connection.

Forum registration is available to:

  • Donors and next-generation family members of family philanthropies 
  • Board members of family philanthropies 
  • CEO/Executive directors and other senior staff members of family philanthropies 
  • Consultants or advisors who are attending as a representative of a family philanthropy and not of their consultancy 
  • Up to two staff members from NCFP’s Community Foundations Network organizations 
  • Up to two staff members from PSO organizations (regional associations, affinity groups, etc.) who are NCFP Network Partners

Representatives of for-profit entities who are not representing a specific family philanthropy may partner with NCFP via sponsorship. Please email Sarah Dovere for more information.  

National Forum on Family Philanthropy registrants must be 18 years of age or older. Please contact us about exceptions if you are a nursing parent.
