How does GCG support your work in the philanthropic sector?

For me, the Gateway Center for Giving has definitely brought an awareness of the issues surrounding our region and the great work funders do for our region.  This new knowledge and awareness has helped when discussing issues in the philanthropy sector.  Networking as well.
