We are excited to share that MWNN Membership will launch in Fall 2026. Since 1992, MWNN has connected nonprofits and their teams to learning opportunities, resources, and one another. As our community continues to grow, membership will provide a sustainable foundation for expanding programming, strengthening peer connections, and developing new resources while preserving the accessibility and collaborative spirit that define MWNN.
Importantly, our commitment to accessibility remains unchanged. Core community offerings (including community Lunch & Learns, monthly meet ups, our newsletter, and annual regional gathering) will continue to be available at no cost.
Membership will build on that foundation and MWNN members can expect benefits such as discounts on workshops and special events, member networking opportunities, priority registration, and access to expanded resources. While many of these programs will remain open to the broader community through fee-based participation, membership provides added value through included access, discounts, and enhanced benefits.
MWNN Membership will be offered through a tiered structure designed to reflect organizational size and capacity, with annual rates beginning at $75. We are also developing subsidized membership opportunities, a “Pay It Forward” option, and Philanthropic Membership opportunities for funders and community partners to help ensure that organizations at every stage of growth can access the connections, learning opportunities, and resources offered through MWNN.
As part of this work, MWNN has also been investing in the systems and infrastructure needed to support our growing community. This includes our transition to a new CRM, which will help us better manage communications, events, resources, and relationships across the network and create a stronger experience for members and community participants alike. You may notice updates to event pages, website content, and communications, and we may reach out to confirm or update contact information to ensure we stay connected with our community.
This work began with the support of committed partners who participated in our strategic planning and evolved with the support of a dedicated Membership Committee, whose time, insight, and feedback have been instrumental in building a model grounded in the needs of our community. We are also grateful for the many partners, community members, and champions who have contributed through ongoing conversations, ideas, and feedback throughout this process.
We are especially thankful to the Barr Foundation and the Middlesex Charitable Foundation for their support of MWNN’s infrastructure work, including our CRM transition, which strengthens our ability to serve and connect the nonprofit community.
We’ll be sharing more details throughout the summer and fall and look forward to building this next chapter of MWNN together. A dedicated Membership page will be added to our website soon, where you can find updates, FAQs, and additional information as it becomes available.
Questions, ideas, or feedback? We’d love to hear from you at [email protected].
