The last few years have certainly been turbulent on many different fronts here in New Jersey, across the country, and around the globe. Life as we knew it has changed for us personally and professionally. Because of this, many of the conversations in philanthropy have changed as well. One thing that remains a constant is that funders in Monmouth and Ocean Counties continue striving to make impact with partners in Monmouth and Ocean Counties. But how do we come together as a philanthropic sector to create even more impact? This can be done in many different ways – knowledge sharing, partnerships, collective giving, shifting the way we do our work, and so much more.
In collaboration with the Grunin Foundation, CNJG invites you to join us for breakfast with an engaging discussion about what funders can to do together to create greater impact in Ocean and Monmouth communities.
Cost: This meeting is free and open to any funder that grants funds in Ocean and/or Monmouth County.
You do not need to be a CNJG member to register, however, if you do not have a website account with CNJG, you will need to create one in order to register. If you have any trouble with the registration process, please contact CNJG.

The role of corporate philanthropy is at a pivotal point as executive, employee, and customer expectations shift and stakeholders increasingly expect businesses to value and invest in societal welfare. In this rapidly evolving environment, there is opportunity for corporate foundations to reevaluate traditional approaches to grant making, social responsibility, and engagement with counterpart organizations.
The life sciences and health care industry provides an exceptionally compelling illustration of macrophilanthropic trends and possibilities. Although all industries can constructively transform existing corporate philanthropy models, the life sciences and health care ecosystem is experiencing dramatic increases in consumer engagement, perceived social responsibility, and global attention that make more thoughtful, strategic philanthropic investment especially urgent. In this paper, they examine the current health ecosystem, evolving stakeholder expectations, the unique position of life sciences and health care foundations to effect critical change,and alternative engagement models with demonstrated track records of success on an international scale.
