WHAT IS THE JOURNALISM FUNDERS GATHERING? | This annual gathering provides an important opportunity to strengthen connections among journalism funders and to provide opportunities for funders to discuss their work and share ideas with one another. 

WHY SHOULD I ATTEND? | We know that funders rely on the expertise of other funders. This meeting will help you make connections to peers who are eager to share best practices and lessons learned. By taking a broad view across the field of media funding to include many different types of platforms, issues and philanthropic goals, we are uniquely able to bring funders together around specific topics, connect funders and media makers who might not otherwise cross paths, and in the process, expand the field of journalism funding.

WHAT'S ON THE AGENDA? | This year's agenda will feature discussions on new initiatives in the field, innovative funding models, efforts to build and sustain media equity, and more. Stay tuned for more details as we continue to shape this program.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? | For those who purchased an in-person ticket, we will reach out to you individually and refund you the difference.
Members (virtual): $100
Non-members (virtual): $150

WHAT IS THE JOURNALISM FUNDERS NETWORK? | MIF’s Journalism Funders Network is a strong and active network of MIF and comprises a diverse constellation of philanthropic organizations. Through convenings, original research reports and field-building activities, we aim to strengthen connections among journalism funders and offer them opportunities to discuss their work among peers.
