Philanthropy Massachusetts Talks Berkshire County Needs

Philanthropy Mass CEO Mary Skelton Roberts, left, Barr Foundation President Jim Canales and Alexandra Russell, co-chair of the Western Mass Funders Network and moderator of the panel. The networking event was held at the Norman Rockwell Museum on July 12.  
 
STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. — The Norman Rockwell Museum was filled with nonprofit members and philanthropists earlier this month to have a conversation centered around the challenges in Western Massachusetts and how Philanthropy Massachusetts can help. 
 
"Part of what I wanted to do was just get out there and meet who is working on behalf of folks in Berkshire County," said the organization's new CEO Mary Skelton Roberts.
 
"The other goals was to talk with them about ... what are the issues that they're facing, and how were they coming together, to discuss these issues, learn together, and then figure out if there is a next step." 
 
The event featured a panel consisting of Roberts and local nonprofit leaders Peter Taylor, president of the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation, and Jim Canales, president and trustee of the Barr Foundation.
 
Based on the conversations at the event, it seemed that the attendees wanted to hear what Philanthropy Massachusetts' concerns and priorities are, Roberts said. 
 
Philanthropy Massachusetts was established in 1969 with aims to bridge the gap between funders and fund applicants. 
 
Through its network, it provides a number of resources such as research and technical assistance, and convenes funders and non-profits, Roberts said.
