V. DEVELOPING CONTENT

If you are interested in promoting and sharing your own content through the NCFP Knowledge Center, please provide us the name, title, and contact information of the staff member in your organization with whom we may develop such content with for distribution.
• In addition, NCFP encourages Partner Subscribers to suggest any useful tools or information from other sources that may be of value to family philanthropists and the Family Philanthropy Online community of users.

VI. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

• Family Philanthropy Online is a non-exclusive, subscription service provided by the National Center for Family Philanthropy. NCFP reserves the right to offer or deny subscriptions to any and all organizations, institutions, and individuals, as it determines to be appropriate.
