Ask the community for ideas and engage in rich conversations about philanthropy. 

FAQ

  • We have created sub-groups within the main Google Group for members who participate in our Women’s Leadership Group and/or our Single Shingles & Executive Directors of Lean Foundations Group. If you would like to be added to either group, please email us at info@p150.org.

    • Sourcing requests for possible organizations to fund (ex: I’m looking for great criminal justice organizations working on policy in California). The more detailed, the better.

    • Posing questions you’re grappling with in your work or seeking thought-partnership on.

    • Any resources you find helpful or provocative. We love a conversation with rich back and forths or healthy debate.

    • Head to this link and click “New Conversation.” Write it just like an email and send off to the community.

    • You can also send an email directly to: philanthropy150@googlegroups.com from your own email account.

    • Don’t be shy, reply! Help members out if you have an org that meets their search criteria or have a resource or idea that would be helpful.

    • We strongly encourage you to “Reply All” whenever possible versus reaching out directly to a member. When going direct, the rest of the community misses out on your knowledge. (An exception is RSVPing to a specific event, which can be done directly).

  • According to our norms, this is a no sales zone. Given the amount of pitching we receive as advisors, this is a place where we are not pitching our services or on behalf of our affiliates. If you’re not sure, feel free to ask!

  • While we encourage folks to be transparent and open in the space, we understand that there are occasions where information is sensitive. Feel free to reach out to info@p150.org or Jody Giles (jody@p150.org) as she frequently posts anonymously for members when the need arises!

Our Google Group is the primary place members share resources, source ideas, and are in ongoing conversation with each other. Think of this as a knowledge sharing, thought leadership platform to help us do our jobs better.
