FCCP is an innovative and thought-provoking network that shares an underlying conviction that all people deserve a voice in our democratic process. We serve philanthropic leaders, in a nonpartisan way, who work to further our shared vision: a society where marginalized communities have the power to make a difference on issues that impact their lives, a culture of participation that inspires their engagement, and an open and equitable democracy which offers meaningful opportunities to exercise their voice.
With nearly 100 members, our network serves many types of philanthropy: institutions such as family foundations, community foundations, grantmaking public charities, corporate foundations and labor organizations and individual members including individual donors and philanthropic advisors.
