The GNOFN network brings together philanthropies that are committed to making the Greater New Orleans region healthier and more equitable so our communities can thrive. Together, our members focus on promoting collaboration, learning, and making impactful, collaborative investments. 

We are pleased to announce our new board co-chair and welcome our new and returning board members and members! 

In these uncertain times, our role at GNOFN has never been more clear: To listen to what our communities in Greater New Orleans need, so they can inform our collective philanthropy and the philanthropic efforts of our member organizations. 

In doing so, we increase our collective impact on the local nonprofits that address those community needs. Our deep connection to local nonprofits keeps our lens focused on our efforts to build a healthy, equitable, and brighter future for the Greater New Orleans area. 

Centering community voice and needs is a critical aspect of GNOFN’s grantmaking process. Our approach to tackling the pressing needs of the Greater New Orleans community relies on the input and recommendations our members receive from the GNOFN Action Tables. Our work with the New Orleans Youth Alliance (NOYA) gives us a real-life example of how our members utilize GNOFN’s Action Tables to activate their philanthropic efforts.
