Funders Alliance of Upstate New York Public Policy Committee

The Funders Alliance is committed to strengthening and promoting grantmaking throughout the region by creating a common voice for funders to advocate for public policies that build a positive image for philanthropy, encourage charitable giving and advance the nonprofit sector.

The Public Policy Committee works to engage and educate Funders Alliance members to realize their potential for individual and collective roles in the public policy process.  The Funders Alliance creates opportunities for public/private funder dialogue and provides information about federal, state and local policies that affect grantmakers and their interests in the nonprofit sector.
