Non-Solicitation Policy

PSFG seeks to create platforms and opportunities for funders to exchange information and collaborate with their funder peers. We believe this best takes place in an environment free from the dynamics of solicitation from grantseekers. PSFG enforces a strict non-solicitation policy, including:

  • Soliciting funds, contracts, and consulting clients is absolutely prohibited at all PSFG events and on our digital listservs and platforms.

  • For organizations that both raise funds and make grants, your participation in PSFG activities is as a grantmaker only. Staff whose functions are primarily fundraising (e.g., development staff) within institutions that are both grantseeking and grantmaking are not eligible for participation in PSFG activities.

  • Contact information on PSFG's Member Directory and other lists is for networking purposes only. Please do not add contact information to your mailing list without an individual’s explicit permission. Please do not use email addresses, phone numbers, or other contact information for soliciting funds or contracts. Please do not forward other members' contact information to grantseekers without their permission.

  • PSFG reserves the right to restrict the participation of individuals whose behavior contravenes the letter or spirit of our non-solicitation policy.
