Most people are not experts in philanthropy when they start
a foundation, or assume a position as a trustee or staff of
a foundation or giving program. Very few are graduates of
a degree-program in philanthropy or nonprofit management.
They find that making grants is not as simple as just writing
a check to a charity. There are rules and regulations to follow,
due diligence to perform, community issues to learn about,
and practical skills that must be employed to make your philanthropy
meaningful and effective.
DVG's knowledgeable staff organizes programs
on issues that relate to your funding interests (from
education to arts & culture to healthcare and everything
in-between), and professional development
workshops that teach you the valuable skills you need
to excel at the grantmaking process.
