TAG Slack

A Conversation Space for TAG Members

Community is Vital

Your membership with the Technology Association of Grantmakers (TAG) provides access to our community Slack workspace.

There, you can safely connect with peers, ask questions/receive answers, and share insights on what “works” in your organization. TAG is full of leaders, learners, and problem-solvers who value pragmatic tools as well as opportunities to become more strategic. Listen, learn, and lead with the TAG community supporting you.

Join the Discussion

This virtual community is open to all current TAG members and access is available upon request. Contact the Director of Community Engagement for your invitation.

Please note that the TAG Slack is a solicitation-free zone. Partner / provider members may post promotional materials in the #plugs-and-promo channel only. Read the Slack Usage Policy (PDF) for more information.

What is the TAG Slack?

Slack is a channel-based messaging platform. More specifically, it is where members of TAG can connect with peers regarding trends in IT and philanthropy and find the information they need to do their best work — all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment.

Conversation is broken into “channels” in order to organize discussions. Here is how the TAG channels are structured:

  • #tag-announcements – TAG posts news and events here before sharing with our mailing list.
  • #tag-general – the “big tent” for conversations on everything TAG (tools, knowledge sharing, questions for peers, etc.)
  • #coffee-break – less tech, more connect. A great place to for informal sharing.
  • #plugs-and-promo – an opportunity for self-promotion and the space where vendor/partners can post promotions and events.

In addition, TAG offers the following private channels and/or user groups:

  • #communityfoundations-private – the space for community foundation staff to share and connect with other community foundations. No partner / providers, please.
  • #fluxx-users – a private place to ask questions and share tips with your fellow platform users. No partner / providers, please.
  • #salesforce-users – a private place to ask questions and share tips with your fellow platform users. No partner / providers, please.
  • #women-in-tech – a learning group for women in philanthropy tech, by women in philanthropy tech. By invitation only.
