This forum connects grant seekers from nonprofits with funders to learn about opportunities for partnership.

The Alliance is proud to partner with the Arizona Grantmakers Forum and the American Association of Grant Professionals AZ Chapter to connect you to funding partners in our community.

The Valley Grants Forum is held four times each year -- twice in the fall and twice in the spring. For 12 years, this session has been one of the premier opportunities for nonprofits and funders to learn from one another.

Scheduled presenters:

  • Renee Levin, Corporate Affairs, Intel Corporation
  • Kim Van Pelt, Regional Manager, First Things First
  • Lauren Daniels, Arizona Chapter of the American Association of Grant Professionals, "Basic Tools for Grantwriters"
  • Patrick McWhortor, "In the Eye of the Storm" 
    Alliance President & CEO Patrick McWhortor offers a positive message of hope for nonprofits during this recession. Learn how nonprofits can be stronger after surviving the “storm.” McWhortor will highlight preliminary results of the Alliance’s current survey on the effects of the economy on nonprofits, indicate some signs of hope at the national level and point to new developments nonprofits should be watching to survive the recession.

$25 fee
$15 for Members of the Alliance of Arizona Nonprofits and the American Association of Grant Professionals
