Donors Forum of Wisconsin (DFW) is a regional association of grantmakers who support and promote effective philanthropy through membership, professional development and information sharing. As Wisconsin's leading voice and premier resource for philanthropy, DFW is committed to helping its members fulfill their charitable goals. It does so by providing opportunities for trustees and staff to network, provides professional development opportunities, enhances knowledge and demonstrates community leadership.

DFW helps funders become more efficient, effective grantmakers. Being a member means being part of an informed, innnovative and in-touch network.

Celebrating 30 years, DFW turns its focus to what philanthropy means in our community, the impact it has had over the past 30 years, and its hope for Wisconsin's future.


DFW PARTNERS:
Who Should Attend
The Donors Forum of Wisconsin identifies the following groups as potential collaborators in structuring the framework for this conference. The 10th Annual Statewide Conference on Philanthropy is principally designed for these groups:
  • Private Foundations
  • Community Foundations
  • Corporate Sector - as part of the promotion of corporate social responsibility
  • Individual Donors
  • Wealth Advisors

Overview
The purpose of this conference is to provide an opportunity for grantmakers, individual philanthropists and fellow associates in the philanthropic community to share their experiences, learn new tools and assess their past achievements and endeavors.

*Please note, the 2009 conference sessions are meant for grantmakers only (those mentioned above in the Who Should Attend), a shift from previous conferences. This year we will feature a National Day of Service and Remembrance Luncheon will be offered following the sessions to bring nonprofits leaders and grantmakers together to celebrate philanthropy and the conclusion of our Snapshots of Philanthropy series.
