WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A PHILMO MEMBER
YOU SERVE COMMUNITIES
While each PhilMO Member has a unique mission, all Members are passionate about meeting the needs of people in the communities they serve. Members seek to learn — and unlearn — how to refine their strategies and practices to ensure impact. PhilMO takes the guesswork out of philanthropy by equipping you with the latest sector information, tools, and resources to serve communities most effectively.
YOU STRENGTHEN THE SECTOR
While each Member makes a difference, PhilMO Members are stronger together. Members cultivate relationships with philanthropic peers in their regions and across the state. PhilMO is a connector, providing opportunities for networking, peer-to-peer learning, aligned action, and regional and/or statewide collaboration. This connectivity strengthens individual and institutional effectiveness and builds a stronger sector.
You advance opportunity
While each PhilMO Member has a voice, together the membership can advance a more equitable Missouri. PhilMO Members recognize how evolving philanthropic and broader community landscapes influence their mission. PhilMO’s programs and services support Members in confidently designing resilient programs that courageously advance opportunities for all Missourians to thrive.
Founded in 1970, Philanthropy Missouri (PhilMO) equips, connects, and energizes philanthropic leaders for thoughtful action and greater impact. Membership ensures you aren't left alone in your work. We facilitate connections and provide programming and resources that help you serve your community, strenghten the sector, and advance opportunities for all Missourians to thrive.
PhilMO is where philanthropic leaders belong; we can make a greater impact together.
