We joined ECFC because we believe that our collective voice and aligned approach is more powerful. ECFC has provided a peer learning and support group that has helped to strengthen our foundation's grantmaking and our ability to leverage our impact effectively. ECFC has also helped to elevate funders ability to influence the field as a whole, and public policies at the state and federal level.
