Exponent Philanthropy serves small-staffed foundations and donors by offering education, peer connections, and resources to enhance their giving practices. It advocates for greater simplicity in philanthropy, while maximizing social impact.

Each year, its members nominate, vote for, and award several members who have developed exceptional projects. In their own words, Exponential Philanthropy is a place “where foundation leaders and individual funders learn and inspire one another to make an exponential impact.”
