JFN Jewish Foundation Communications Pros Network
Jewish Funders Network is excited to be building a new peer network for foundation professionals working in marketing and communications. Whether you’re a department of one, lead a larger team, or wear multiple hats while also managing communications efforts, we hope you'll join this space. We want to make this group as responsive to your needs as possible, and this brief survey will help us better understand your team’s structure, areas of interest, and ideas for future programming. It should take no more than 5 minutes to complete. We look forward to building this community together.
