Joining Philanos

Whether your group is a women’s fund, a giving circle, or an Impact100, we are the network for you. Check out our member benefits

No two Philanos affiliates are exactly alike, but we all 

  • are 501(c)(3) or are hosted by one
  • engage in collective giving by combining equal, individual member donations to make larger grants
  • select grant recipients by a democratic membership vote
  • have established grant review and assessment processes
  • provide educational experiences for members to advance their effectiveness as philanthropists and
  • are inclusive and open to the ideas of others.

How to Join Philanos | PHILANOS

    • contact us to set up a phone call with a membership committee representative - we want to learn about your group!
    • appoint a board or staff person as primary contact between your organization and Philanos.  All correspondence will be directed to her and she will facilitate the distribution of Philanos' information within your organization.  
    • pay $300; read about annual dues
    • complete and annually update your organization's affiliate profile
    • keep your organization's contacts current in our database
