From grassroots to global movement!
All over the world – from Brazil to Russia, from China to the Congo and from Palestine to South Africa – community philanthropy has emerged as an essential tool for strengthening communities’ voice and power.
Join us in Johannesburg to celebrate the dynamism and potential of this flourishing movement at the Global Summit on Community Philanthropy, 1st – 2nd December 2016!

People behind the Summit
One of the beauties of the community philanthropy field is its diversity. Community foundations, most certainly! But just as important are the rich networks of women’s funds, environmental funds, social justice funds and every other type of grassroots grantmaker.
