The speakers from Grantmakers in Aging (GIA) and The John A. Hartford Foundation will present about the priorities and strategic directions of charitable foundations in aging. They will also share their insights, particularly as they are navigating uncertain times with federal policy and budgets.
GIA is a community of funders mobilizing money and ideas to strengthen policies, programs, and resources for all of us as we age. As the hub of the aging philanthropy ecosystem, GIA creates opportunities for funders to connect, collaborate, and co-fund. Our vision is a just and inclusive world where all people are fully valued, recognized, and engaged at all ages.
