PEAK2026 Scholarship Application

Thank you for your interest in attending PEAK2026!

We are thrilled to offer scholarships to current members of the PEAK community who would otherwise not be able to attend PEAK2026 due to limited professional development budgets. Scholarships cover the in-person registration fee.

The scholarship application form will close on December 1, 2025. Scholarship applicants will be notified of the status of their applications by mid-December.

Eligibility: Scholarships are open to any individual working for a grantmaking institution or philanthropy-supporting organization. You must be a US citizen and a member of PEAK Grantmaking. Priority will be given to PEAK volunteers and highly-engaged members and those who are committed to operationalizing the Principles for Peak Grantmaking to be change agents for philanthropy, with a focus on empowering a diverse group of philanthropy professionals.
