JFN’s Grantmaking Professional Exchange is excited to invite you to our newest Peer Learning and Support Group (PLSG), focusing on professionals in small-staffed foundations! PLSGs provide opportunities for colleagues in the field to learn together, discuss areas of common interest, and support one another through challenges and opportunities. 

Staff at small foundations are constantly asked to wear a variety of hats. We believe there is something to learn from peers in similar organizational structures and that building a community can provide a dynamic and valuable space for networking, professional growth, and learning.

We hope you will join us for this introductory session. Our partner, Third Plateau, will facilitate the conversation and help develop a structure for how this group can work together in the future. For this PLSG, we loosely define “small-staffed foundations” as those with fewer than five team members. If you have questions about how you or your foundation might fit into this group, please contact Tamar Frydman at tamar@jfunders.org.
