LearnPhilanthropy Content Providers Survey

Page One

Dear Colleagues,

Many of us have been talking about grantmaker learning for years. Now, with the Grantmaker Education Initiative (otherwise known as LearnPhilanthropy.net) more than 40 content providers, grantmakers, and philanthropy networks are hard at work imagining a stronger, less fragmented system for delivering knowledge, skills, and connections to grantmakers.

While the shape of this network or system is as yet undefined, we believe that we are on our way to creating something that works better for the individual grantmakers involved in philanthropy, and better for the many groups and organizations that provide learning programs and resources to them.

As a creator, provider, or presenter of educational materials or programming, it is essential that this emerging system make sense from the perspective of your organization and from your understanding of grantmaker needs.

We know you have survey fatigue! So do we!

But please, please take a few moments and complete this short survey. We will share the aggregated responses with you so that we can all learn something together.

Survey results will be kept confidential and only reported in aggregate. Your name and organization will not be attached to anything without your explicit permission. We would also like to follow up with some of you for more in-depth conversation. Please indicate whether you’d be willing to be contacted to share your perspective in more detail.

Sincerely yours,

Courtney Bourns, Vice President of Programs
Grantmakers for Effective Organizations
