The 2026 MCF Annual Conference has been reconfigured for the safety and wellbeing of attendees and staff.
MCF’s 2026 Annual Conference is where Minnesota philanthropy comes together. Mark your calendar for February 11–12 for virtual gatherings. Plus, join us on June 30 at the McNamara Alumni Center in Minneapolis.
This year's theme, Stronger Together, celebrates the collective power of Minnesota’s philanthropic community. In a time of growing disconnection, this gathering offers space to reconnect—to each other, to our values, and to the work that unites us.
