GIA is thrilled to share that registration for our 2025 Annual Conference in Long Beach, CA is now open.

Register, book your hotel and see the full agenda on the site.
In 2025, we’re taking our Annual Conference to Long Beach, a vibrant Southern California cultural hub, where our host sponsor will be Archstone Foundation. Join funders, thought leaders, and changemakers at the only meeting focused exclusively on aging and philanthropy. Let’s gather in California, then branch out together — broadening our networks, deepening our relationships, learning from each other, and growing investments in aging.
The 2025 Annual Conference will facilitate meaningful connections with the goals of:
- Influencing policies and leveraging funding to nurture connections between aging and other intersecting priorities, including but not limited to workforce, economic security, housing, mental and physical health, disability rights, and community-building.
- Scaling up collaborations and co-investments to maximize impact.
- Bringing innovative models to new localities.
- Advancing more equitable philanthropic practice in our funding strategies and our operations.
- Growing our skillsets as funders and partners.
