Exploratory • Values-Based Philanthropy • Documenting Your Charitable Legacy Creating Your Philanthropic Vision Set your intentions on how you would like to share your time, talent, treasure and ties. You may have noticed common threads between what is important to you and your giving. How can you plan your giving in alignment with your values and philanthropic goals? Join us for an intimate and highly interactive session that will help you clarify your goals and construct a plan for your philanthropic journey. We will explore the gifts of time, talent, treasure and ties while creating a vision and timeline that begins now, and extends to your philanthropic legacy.
The sessions are limited to 10 attendees. We ask that attendees be associated with a charitable fund at the Community Foundation (ex., fund founders, spouses, adult children, and significant others associated with your philanthropic journey). Stay tuned for future sessions. Please indicate your preferred session date using the form below and include any additional guests you'd like to join you. If you are interested, but not able to attend, please still indicate your interest below, and include another month that might better align with your schedule. Since spaces are limited, we will notify you when your registration is confirmed. Questions? Contact Sidney Peterson at events@growyourgiving.org or 816.627.3414.
