Our purpose:
be the leading platform to strengthen and make the case for institutional philanthropy with a focus on Europe, but also with an eye to the global philanthropic landscape.
Institutional philanthropy refers to foundations, corporate funders and other players that
have their own financial resources which they deploy strategically,
are independently governed, and
use private resources for public good

EFC Strategic Framework : priorities
5/9/2017
1. Nurture Philanthropy
2. Advance the sector
3. Foster Peer-learning
Create opportunities for members to learn from each other’s experiences and best practices.
Through furthering our peer-to-peer learning not only do we provide members with opportunities to share knowledge and know-how, we also gather and disseminate information, insight and intelligence on the sector. We will look within and beyond our membership to effectively capture and share trends and best practices in institutional philanthropy.
4. Enhance collaboration
5. Champion philanthropy
Make the case for institutional philanthropy.
We will make the case for institutional philanthropy by creating a solid evidence base for issues, trends and activities. We will also work to widely and effectively communicate this because we believe it is not just our sector that needs to know what’s going on.
