Greater Washington Catalogue for Philanthropy Honors Posse

Posted March 02, 2011 Posse Press

The Posse Foundation is proud to be featured in the 2010–2011 Catalogue for Philanthropy: Greater Washington. Each year, some 250 organizations apply to be featured and undergo a rigorous vetting process. This year, a panel of 100 expert reviewers from area foundations, corporate giving programs, giving circles and peer nonprofits selected Posse among the 70 nonprofits included.

“We know that many nonprofits have had a very difficult year. For most, contributions are flat or down, and the decrease or loss of foundation and government funding has created significant budgetary challenges,” says Barbara Harman, president and editor of the Catalogue for Philanthropy: Greater Washington. “Individual donors can make a real difference this year, keeping great organizations afloat during these tough times.”

The Posse Foundation has been recognized by the Catalogue since 2006. The philanthropic organization has enabled Posse D.C. to reach out to individuals in the region who would otherwise not hear our story.

In addition to being acknowledged in the 2010–11 Catalogue—which was released last November—Posse is proud to be featured on the publication’s cover.
