Overview
Exponent Philanthropy is a membership organization for funders with few or no staff that provides high-quality knowledge, resources, and peer-to-peer connections to help members more effectively achieve their philanthropic goals. Formerly known as the Association of Small Foundations, its new name better reflects its findings: that it isn’t the giving vehicle or number of staff that unites members, but rather their intentional decisions to be lean and agile in their approach to giving. It has 2,300 member foundations with collective assets of $71.4 billion and annual grantmaking of $4 billion. Supporting Exponent as part of the Knowledge strategy will help more knowledge resources reach this large audience of small-staffed foundations.
