peers and trusted colleagues in efforts to advance the field. Collectively, our
network serves all types and sizes of philanthropy consultants, as well as
grantmakers, grantmaker networks, and philanthropic families. As a result, the
work of NNCG members has positive impact in hundreds of communities.
