Starting in the Fall, Philanos will add the Young Philanthropist affinity group to its roster of affinity groups. Many affiliates are looking to increase the number of younger members in their organizations but are not quite sure how to start.
Philanos offered the Young Philanthropist Cohort in September 2024.
Through the Cohort, affiliates interested in starting or restarting a younger philanthropist cohort heard from those affiliates with established younger philanthropist programs and learned how best to recruit and retain younger members.
In response to the overwhelming interest in the YP Cohort, Philanos will begin a Young Philanthropist Affinity group. As in other Philanos affinity groups, the Young Philanthropist affinity group will be interactive. Attendees will be able to connect, learn and share tips, stories and even data on growing a young philanthropist program.
