• The Environmental Grantmakers Association (EGA) grew out of, and is still a part of, the Environmental Grantmakers Affinity Group of the Council on Foundations (COF). In 1987, a group of environmental grantmakers met in Washington, D.C. to discuss common interests and to learn about each other's specific programs. As a result of the enthusiasm generated at this meeting, plans were made for future meetings, grants lists exchanged, and a "directory" of foundation program interests was published. Subsequent meetings have reaffirmed this interest for increased communication among grantmakers through the EGA
