How To Get Involved
Partners can choose their level of involvement from money-only to one-time events; from discrete projects to ongoing commitments. On average, about 10% of our partners are "money-only," and the rest have volunteered their time in any the following areas:
- Helping to decide which nonprofits SVP should invest in by serving on the grantmaking committee
- Implementing operational best practices through volunteering with an SVP team at a grantee
- Gaining knowledge about the philanthropic and nonprofit communities by attending educational events hosted by SVP Denver
- Being part of an SVP internal committee to SVP Denver grow the next generation of philanthropic leaders
The entire partnership comes together several times a year for partner meetings, social events, and partner education events. Otherwise, partners work in small teams that focus on pre-determined projects.
