National Philanthropic Foundation
The Next Generation Philanthropic Council
A National Movement for American Philanthropy
The Next Generation Philanthropic Council is a national community of dynamic leaders who believe generosity, civic responsibility, and strategic giving can shape a stronger future for America. We bring together individuals who are committed to building a culture of philanthropy that is innovative, collaborative, and grounded in real impact.
Members come from every sector and stage of leadership. What brings them together is a shared belief in the power of service, thoughtful investment, and responsible influence.
We are redefining what philanthropy looks like today and for the next 250 years of American civic life.
