The Balcom Group

Grantmakers for Education is philanthropy's knowledge source for achieving results in education. We provide professional development, information and networking to grantmakers to help foundations and donors improve achievement and opportunities for all students through their investments.

Founded in 1995, we are a national network of over 200 foundations, corporate giving programs, and individual donors. GFE members represent a diverse and experienced cross-section of grantmakers working to change programs, systems and institutions from pre-kindergarten through higher education.
