Join your Houston-based peers and NCFP to explore the latest trends in family philanthropy, based on findings from NCFP’s recent study, Trends 2025. Hear about changes in the sector across the last decade, including how family philanthropies are learning about new ideas and approaches. Understand your practices relative to your peers and how to use this information to make data-driven, effective, and community-centered decisions.
If you are a family funder in the Houston area, we invite you to join us for a conversation and peer connections. Contact Maureen Esposito at Maureen.Esposito@ncfp.org for more information.
