Our members fall into two categories
- Steering Committee Members invest in the fund at a level proportional to their total annual grantmaking, and commit to funder organizing in service of our grantees and other similar organizations.
- Learning Members, whose scope of grantmaking or geography falls outside of ours, come to learn about our strategy and approach.
To find out more about our two membership types, contact Melody Baker, Interim Senior Director of Amplify Fund, at melody@nfg.org.
