How do philanthropy-serving organizations (PSOs) partner together on programming? These partnerships take place along a continuum with varying levels of time and resource commitment.

As we mark the two-year anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic, United Philanthropy Forum has released a report to document how philanthropy-serving organizations (PSOs) have responded to the pandemic. The report looks back to detail how PSOs—the regional and national philanthropy associations and networks that comprise the Forum network—played many vital leadership roles in the philanthropy sector’s response to the pandemic.

Letter from a group of members of the Charitable Giving Coalition, including the Forum, asking Congress to include DAFs in relief legislation.

Earlier this month, the Forum submitted a letter to the California General Assembly’s Judiciary Committee in opposition to Assembly Bill 1712. This bill would require the Attorney General to develop reporting regulations related to donor-advised funds (DAFs) at an account-by-account level, departing from the current practice, already in place. The fund-by-fund disclosure required by the bill would likely lead to the disclosure of donor identify and/or private donor information.

Join us on the trail with this PSO Field Guide that provides the stories of victory and defeat and provides details on the equipment necessary for successful partnerships and collaboration among PSOs and our partners.
