Member Benefits

We provide two levels of membership: Signature and SignaturePLUS. Both offer valuable benefits in the form of resources, connections, and inspiration that will help you make the most of the minutes you have and the dollars you have to give.
Signature Membership
Membership offers expert information across all aspects of philanthropy—from grantmaking strategies to leadership development—in person, online, and via print publications. Members receive a full suite of resources, events, learnings and more at their fingertips designed exclusively for them. Signature members also save money with member-only discounts on resources and services for every aspect of your organization.

Joining Exponent has been one of the best decisions our foundation has ever made. We’ve paid the nominal fee ten times over for the benefits we receive. Every time I call, everyone is friendly and immediately responsive. It’s truly like having extra paid staff who are efficient and extremely qualified, which is beyond helpful for a small-staffed foundation. —SMART FAMILY FOUNDATION
