GFEM Membership Policy
GFEM is a membership organization comprised of foundations, organizations with a significant funding portfolio and private donors. Our members also include funders who do not fund media but want knowledge of the field to be more effective in their work. GFEM is an Affinity Group of the Council on Foundations, however foundations need not be members of the Council to be members of GFEM. We welcome not-for-profit and government funders as members of GFEM, however, we will ask you to provide documentation that grantmaking is a primary activity of your organization. Individual donors are eligible for GFEM membership; however, we will need documentation of your grantmaking activities and/or affiliation with a donor network. (Eligible funders who elect not to become a member will still receive our mailings, newsletters, and invitations to our events and activities.)
We invite you to join GFEM based on an annual dues structure that corresponds with the size of your organization and/or grantmaking activities. Member benefits include discounts to GFEM special events, distribution of your media-related materials to our mailing list of over 800 funders and reduced rates for our Funder Support Services that include one-on-one consultations, a curating service, and a comprehensive Media Institute.
We understand that some foundations and organizations are not in a position to pay membership dues but prefer to affiliate with affinity groups by making a grant. If you would like to become a member and require a proposal, please check the appropriate box on the membership form. We will apply for affinity group support accordingly. GFEM will not share its member information or mailing list for any reason. Member programs or activities may be featured on the GFEM website, in the e-newsletter or in other forms, with permission of the member in question.
