Representing the RSFWF at the October WCGN conference in Austin were Victoria Hanlon and Gillian Gilles. The Women’s Collective Giving Network is open to philanthropic organizations with collective-giving models, membership-driven equal contributions, established grant review and democratic member-voted grantees (sounds like us, all right). 

The Leadership Forum of WCGN was well attended with 90 participants and 29 organizations across the country represented.  Gillian and Victoria both really enjoyed their time at the conference and have a lot of new ideas and material to share with our members, including online links to speaker presentations (see our next newsletter)!
