What Matters is the Triangle's largest philanthropic event of its kind. Triangle Community Foundation's signature annual gathering, now in its 10th iteration, brings together people from all sectors in our region to celebrate community philanthropy, learn what it can take for everyone to thrive, and find commonality in our work. What Matters attracts more than 500 leaders dedicated to using their time, talent, and treasure to make our community a better place.‍

Over the years, the event has brought engaging keynote speakers, panelists, and local leaders to the What Matters stage, speaking on topics relevant to our community, offering insight on solutions to key challenges, and inspiring action going forward. In 2026, the focus is on Housing Affordability, a key issue in our region and one a community foundation is uniquely suited to support with grantmaking, impact investing, advocacy, convening, and more.
