This year's Foundations on the Hill conference will happen over six days in March.

There won't be cherry blossoms to see but there will be opportunities to learn from experts and speakers and hear updates on a range of public policy issues at the federal level. Register here. Our meetings with members of Congress will be spread over the spring months.

Please let Joanne Kelley know if you'd like to be involved in any of our meetings where we share the work of Colorado philanthropy with Colorado's Congressional delegation
