Our Staff

The Philanthropy Ohio staff is here to help you connect to the right people and information you need to reach your philanthropic goals and increase your impact. Need to know how others solved a particular problem? Have a legal question? Want a sample document, job description or form to use in writing one for your use? Whatever you need, start the conversation with one of our staff: pick up the phone, send an email or pull us aside at an event. We're here to help!

Philanthropy Ohio's hours are Monday – Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Friday, 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
