Calling all potential mentees! EPIP Los Angeles is making it easier for you to enhance your professional development under the guidance of skilled mentors from the philanthropic field. Now in its twelfth year, EPIP LA’s Mentorship Program has helped countless early to mid-career EPIP members find great mentors, and you could be next!

The EPIP LA Mentorship Program aims to foster meaningful connections with experienced leaders in the social sector. We emphasize both the peer-to-peer relationships participants build with one another, as well as the relationship each participant builds with their mentor. The program focuses on deepening both types of interactions to enhance professional and personal competence while also opening up new areas of interest for participants. 

Through an application and review process, 5 to 8 individuals will be selected to join the 2025 cohort.

If you are a paid member of EPIP and are interested in exploring your career interests and building stronger relationships in the field, APPLY HERE!

The application deadline is February 28th, 2025.

As spring arrives, we’re getting excited to be even closer to welcoming our community to New Orleans for EPIP 2024: Reconnect, Revive and Rise! Registration is open, you’ve met our conference planning committee, and we’ve now released our full conference agenda.

Excitement is building for our 2024 conference happening in New Orleans! From June 3-5 we’ll be celebrating our first in-person conference since before the pandemic began, and our first conference as a new nonprofit. As we prepare emerging leaders to address the constant change in the philanthropic sector and the world, we can’t wait to reconnect, revive, and rise with our community.
