DAFNE is a formal network bringing together 21 donors and foundations networks from across Europe. Each of these individually serves public benefit foundations and other grantmakers at national level. With a collective membership of over 5000 foundations, DAFNE underpins the
individual activities of its members by strengthening collaboration between the national associations and providing a platform for exchange of knowledge. The secretariat of DAFNE is hosted by the European Foundation Centre (EFC).
