Description

Join colleagues in philanthropy for AZ Impact for Good’s upcoming Quarterly Grantmaker Convening on Thursday, February 19, 2026 (9:00-10:30am). This first convening of 2026 will bring funders from across Arizona together to consider the various shapes funder collaboration takes, including where it powers impact forward, where collaboration is emerging, how it looks for different kinds of funders, and how sometimes collaboration also includes sunsetting efforts to refocus elsewhere.

The convening will include highlights from a few Arizona-based funders and partners reflecting on their experiences with collaborations of different kinds. They will share practical learnings and offer food for thought. Time will also be spent in small groups to digest, share insights with peers, and get to know one another better because collaboration doesn’t happen by accident.
