Get Funded Pavilion
Nonprofit leaders don’t just come to conferences to learn about fundraising. They come because they need clearer pathways to funding, stronger relationships, better tools, and practical support to move their missions forward.
The Get Funded Pavilion, presented by .ORG, is designed to help bridge that gap.
This dedicated funding access space at Exhale (April 5–7, 2027 in Austin, TX) brings together nonprofit leaders, funders, foundations, donor-advised fund partners, capacity-builders, grant readiness resources, and fundraising support partners in one intentional environment built for discovery, conversation, and meaningful next steps.
Meet the people, partners, and resources that can help your organization grow.
The Pavilion is designed to help you:
- Connect with funders, foundations, and funding resource partners
- Explore grant opportunities, DAF pathways, and capacity-building support
- Join mixed funder + grantee panels and practical conversations
- Ask questions, explore fit, and better understand funding pathways
- Leave with new relationships, clearer next steps, and more confidence moving forward
Pavilion access is included with every Exhale ticket.
Connect directly with nonprofit leaders and potential grantees in a more practical, relational setting.
We’re inviting funders, foundations, donor-advised fund partners, philanthropic intermediaries, capacity-builders, and funding-access organizations to participate in the Pavilion and help make funding access feel clearer, more human, and more actionable.
Participating organizations can join for the cost of an Exhale ticket and may have opportunities to:
- Meet aligned nonprofit leaders and potential grantees
- Share funding, grant, or capacity-building opportunities
- Participate in mixed funder + grantee panels
- Host meeting tables, office hours, or listening sessions
- Invite current grantees or nonprofit partners to attend Exhale

Explore grant programs, donor-advised fund pathways, funding tools, and capacity-building support in one place.

Hands-on partners to help you strengthen infrastructure, grow revenue, and move from ideas to action.
A More Practical Pathway to Funding
The Get Funded Pavilion is built to make funding conversations feel less transactional and more useful.
For nonprofit leaders, it creates a space to discover resources, build relationships, and leave with concrete next steps.
For funders and capacity-builders, it creates a thoughtful environment to meet aligned organizations, learn directly from the field, and support a more accessible, equitable, and practical funding ecosystem.
Whether you’re looking for funding or looking to support the organizations doing the work, the Pavilion is designed to help the right people find each other.
