A community of practice for fundraisers and development professionals in journalism.
The Lenfest News Philanthropy Network is a community of practice designed to support and build capacity for fundraising and development professionals in journalism.
Participation in the Network is free, and open to publishers of all sizes and business models — nonprofit, for profit, legacy, start-up, digital, broadcast and print. Our singular and deep focus is on supporting and fostering a cohesive, collaborative, and growing cohort of development professionals who are serving a vital need for news organizations by creating contributed revenue streams.
Journalism struggles to articulate its value — but a service framework can help publishers measure and communicate their impact. Madison Karas and Patrick Boehler will join the Lenfest Communities of Practice on Thursday, Aug. 21 at 2 p.m. EDT for a workshop on using service to track impact. We’ll discuss how to implement service methods in your newsroom and provide audiences with valuable information that helps them navigate their lives.
