UPDATE 5/07/20
Due to COVID-19 (Coronavirus) on March 16, MIE made the decision to take the Conference online for the safety of our community. Thank you for your patience as we pivot to go virtual in realtime. Registration officially closes on May 9 at 12 PM EST. Also, look out for MIE emails, check spam folders, and make sure to take action on emails immediately so that we can troubleshoot ahead of time!

UPDATED 04/09/20
In light of updated guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention regarding COVID-19 (Coronavirus), the recently declared state of emergency, and out of concern for the health and safety of our community, MIE will no longer be holding a live event in Atlanta. Instead, we're taking the MIE 2020 National Conference online! The virtual Conference will serve as a space to engage at a time when it is more important than ever to work collectively and support each other in new ways. Click here to view a complete statement.
If you have questions or thoughts, please call or email Rebecca Price at 617-500-2410 or [email protected]. Our doors are always open.

Dear Friends,
Foundations are making unprecedented commitments to impact investing, putting more of their capital to work to challenge inequity, stem climate change, and drive other social and environmental impact. As the field continues to rapidly grow, what will it take to ensure that the impact investing movement remains laser focused on impact?
We look forward to tackling these issues with you at our upcoming National Conference — Amplifying Impact — in Atlanta on May 11-13, 2020. As a Conference led by and for foundations and their partners, Amplifying Impact will explore the unique leadership role of philanthropy, focusing on our four Conference themes:
-
Centering on Impact
-
Advancing Racial Equity
-
Mobilizing with Urgency
-
Going All-In
One of the most anticipated events for impact investors in philanthropy, Amplifying Impact is an active, collaborative space to network with peers, share real impact investing examples, hear from leaders in the field, and so much more. We look forward to partnering with you on Amplifying Impact!
Best,
Matt
