Now is a great time to join!

Together, we can build a more excellent, connected nonprofit sector.


Joining CNPE connects you both to the resources you need to excel and to hundreds of other organizations. While we primarily serve members in Greater Louisville and Southern Indiana, we welcome members from outside that zone. Geographic boundaries are becoming less relevant as our world becomes more virtual.


In addition to specific member benefits, your CNPE membership lets you connect with the larger nonprofit community in Greater Louisville and Southern Indiana in new ways. CNPE acts as a “convener” of local nonprofits, helping disseminate best practices. We strive to learn exactly what is happening in our sector, to hear from members what their most pressing needs are, and then help to meet those needs with timely training, consulting, advocacy, and reliable information. We invite you to participate actively.


FEES: Here’s how our annual fees are structured (fees effective as of July 1, 2023):

  • Nonprofits pay $75 to $650, depending on annual budget;*
  • Foundations pay $145 to $2,160, depending on how much is distributed annually;
  • Corporations pay either $360 or $720, depending on employee headcount;
  • Governmental entities pay $720; and
  • Individuals pay $75.

* Nonprofits that can't afford to join may be eligible for scholarships.
