Overview
Exponent Philanthropy is a membership organization for funders of all sizes 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. Exponent has roughly 2,300 member foundations with collective assets of $71.4 billion and annual grantmaking of $4 billion. They reach a wide audience of foundations with their own knowledge materials as well as those created by others in the field. This capacity-building grant will support a membership database upgrade. This is a very high priority project for Exponent because the membership database touches almost every aspect of their work.

Exponent members include private, community, and corporate foundations as well as individual givers. 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. This grant is for general operating support as part of the Knowledge for Better Philanthropy strategy.
