How Can You Connect With Other Funders?

FCAA seeks to build a movement and community in AIDS philanthropy, and so, we prioritize programming and events that bring grantmakers together – both online and in-person – to build trust and relationships necessary to forge new partnerships to address HIV/AIDS in a collaborative and strategic manner.

3. Get to know the field of AIDS philanthropy. Our annual resource tracking publications include the latest information on private philanthropic support: how much, who is funding, where the money is going. Use this information to get to know these funders working in your geographic location, or to your program priorities and needs. Learn more at: Our Work > Resource Tracking.
4. While AIDS non-profits/NGOs are not a primary part of FCAA’s constituency, FCAA also provides basic education on responsible and responsive grantseeking to such groups. As a component of FCAA’s limited technical assistance service to AIDS organizations, FCAA distributes an AIDS-Related Organization Packet, which provides vital information about HIV/AIDS funding to grantseekers. To request a hard copy of this packet, please email FCAA and provide your mailing address.
