DVG as a Resource

As the field of philanthropy grows and changes, we must rely upon the networks and resources in our region to stay informed. Membership in DVG provides grantmakers with the knowledge, tools and connections they require to be more thoughtful and effective in their work.

DVG's informative programs feature regional and national speakers on a variety of topics relevant to philanthropy. Through our three affinity groups, Corporate Donors Forum, Trustee Managed and Family Foundations and Health Conversion Foundations, DVG brings like-minded funders together to discuss specific funding issues, share best practices, and benchmark their giving in relation to their colleagues.

Adding value to membership is DVG's ability to provide access to a national network of grantmakers through our affiliation with the Council on Foundations and the Forum of Regional Associations of Grantmakers.

DVG also offers a variety of printed and electronic resources. Representatives of the media, city and state legislature, financial and estate planning professionals, and nonprofit groups are encouraged to subscribe to our quarterly newsletter and use our website to keep apprised of the latest issues facing the philanthropic sector.

Since 1988, DVG has dedicated itself to serving the regional philanthropic community. To learn more about Delaware Valley Grantmakers and how we might best serve your needs, please Contact Us.
