When Exponent Philanthropy launched our strategic plan in January 2020, we could not have anticipated what the next few years would mean for our world, our organization, our members, or our staff. We had lots of BIG plans and momentum heading into 2020. However, like so much during that time, our plans changed as we shifted gears to support our members and partners to preserve health, gather and share innovative and promising philanthropic practices, and ensure grantmaking resources flowed to the organizations, causes, people, and places that needed it to survive and come through a historically challenging time.
Now, with new leadership in place, and a renewed sense of dedication to our members and mission, the Exponent Philanthropy board and staff are excited to use 2024 and beyond to build momentum for a strong future.
