Convening funder peers to connect, build relationships and enhance impact
Philanthropy Ohio gathers people in adaptive and responsive ways to create paths for connection and collaboration, peer learning and sharing, and to strengthen relationships and amplify impact. Peer spaces provide one-on-one connections and access to colleagues across the state through virtual and in-person convenings throughout the year. Philanthropy Ohio supports many professional peer networks that connect funders to others who share similar jobs, interests, geography and more. Peer and affinity spaces are open to the staff and trustees of grantmaking member organizations as a benefit of membership. To learn more about Philanthropy Ohio’s peer spaces or to join one, contact Laura Smith.

“I have benefitted a lot from Philanthropy Ohio's peer convenings on current and job-relevant topics; webinars; and especially, peer exchange. It is a great way to ask questions from your peers, learn from them and understand that you have a support group that would be able to assist you to answer certain questions and concerns you may have and most importantly, to understand that you are not alone.”
- Tania Arseculeratne, Community Engagement Officer, The Dayton Foundation
