“There were actual decision makers on the panel who candidly shared their knowledge”

Below are testimonials from recent Forum attendees:

The Forum was extremely organized and the speakers were encouraged to stay within time limits. I also liked the informal surveys of the audience and the broad knowledge base provided by the speakers.
– Mary Beth Holman, Volunteer Services Director, International Center, New York City

This was a good introduction to some of the challenges, pitfalls and how to overcome them. It provided me with insight on what I need to do in the next couple of years to prepare for seeking out foundation and corporate grants. It was also nice to have a chance to network informally with other attendees.
– Debbie Dabrowski, Senior Program Manager, The Mississippi Consortium for International Development, Washington DC

I liked hearing directly from staff who work in foundations and have a good deal of experience to share. I thought the panelists were articulate and very helpful. I also liked the format, the cost, and the time involved. It was short, specific, and helpful - not a lot of fluff.
– Marianne Evans Mount, Executive Vice President, The Catholic Distance University, Hamilton VA

I run a nonprofit in Alexandria, VA, and attended a Forum in Washington, DC. I don’t think you can appreciate just how many questions I had answered, and how much help it was. It was amazing. – Deb Roepke, Executive Director, Computer CORE
