01What it does

What American Leadership Forum National does

Mission

The American Leadership Forum joins and strengthens diverse leaders to serve the common good. We do this through a year-long Fellows Program in each Chapter's community in which leaders can engage in dialogue, differ, and build relationships. ALF strengthens Fellows' capacity to address public issues collaboratively and builds a strong leadership network to work for positive change in the communities we serve.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

Program

  1. American Leadership Forum is a national network of chapters, each dedicated to building stronger communities by joining and strengthening diverse leadership to serve the common good. It enhances leadership by building on the strengths of diversity and by promoting collaborative problem solving within and among communities through a one year training program and various on-going activities in each chapter's community.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $13k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
