About The Council
The National Philanthropic Council (NPC) is an invitation-only leadership network uniting philanthropists & corporate and community leaders across sectors and regions. NPC fills a critical gap—preserving and advancing philanthropy’s impact in solving pressing issues, its legacy as a cornerstone of civic trust, and its evolving mission to meet the needs of today and tomorrow. Through convenings and collaboration, NPC ensures philanthropy remains bold, strategic, and catalytic.
