EPIP MINNESOTA


About EPIP Minnesota

The Minnesota Chapter of Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy are professionals at foundations, government and corporate grantmaking entities, and philanthropy support organizations (such as regional associations of grantmakers, affinity groups, and financial advisory firms). Some members are foundation trustees or donors involved in giving circles and other forms of organized giving. Graduate students studying philanthropy are also welcome. EPIP-MN does not discriminate by age, but because we were started by and for young professionals, our constituents are generally under 40 years of age. Members range from weeks to years of work in this field, and from program associates to presidents in terms of responsibility.

EPIP MN is a recognized network of the Minnesota Council of Foundations.

EPIP MN provides networking and professional development programs for new professionals in Minnesota philanthropy. On the second Friday of each month, EPIP MN holds a lunch to discuss topics of interest to emerging practitioners in the field and in our community. Log on to epip-mn.ning.com for more information.
