Partnership for Public Service Examines Foundations' Role in Effective Government

The Partnership for Public Service, Inc., an RBF grantee, has published a report entitled Toward Common Ends: The Foundation Sector and the Federal Government. It addresses the issue of the philanthropic community's role in ensuring the government operates effectively, and was first examined at a Pocantico conference in October 2009. The forum, Achieving Public Good: Opportunities for Collaboration between Government and Philanthropy, was organized by the Partnership for Public Service, the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
