What Membership Type is Right for You?

Since its founding in 2008, Global Washington (GlobalWA) has built a thriving, multi-sectoral network to connect, promote, and strengthen the global development community.

Washington state has a powerful concentration of international development organizations, philanthropists, academic institutions, and companies working to improve the lives of people living in developing countries. Global Washington is the only membership association in the state that brings together this broad-based network to advance the work of our members.

Global Washington promotes our members, brings them together to spark new ideas and partnerships, and builds a network of leaders finding solutions to the world’s most complex problems.

GlobalWA members are both individual philanthropists and institutional.

Individual Philanthropy

Individual members include global philanthropists from across the spectrum of professional positions and ages, yet all with the common thread of supporting positive change in low- and middle-income countries. Our individual programs allow our members to get directly involved in decision-making, program evolution, and even site visits.
