We are rapidly approaching the holiday season, a time for families and joyous traditions, and perhaps too much pie, turkey, etc. What gets lost in the commercialization of the holiday season, are the opportunities we have as individuals and families to make, honor and celebrate traditions. In this call, John A. Warnick shares a number of simple but powerful ways in which we can take advantage of what Lee Brower calls Thankmas. Learn about Thankmas and several other ways in which you can help your family and your clients strengthen family bonds, create meaningful traditions, and explore the pathway to a more significant and purposeful life in 2018.
In this call, Kristin Keffeler, Dean of Family Sustainability and Empowerment, interviews Sylvia Brown, a member of the Brown family of Rhode Island, a family who has been giving in the United States for over 300 years. We explore the history of American philanthropy from charity in the colonial era to impact investing today, and how best to train the philanthropists of tomorrow. In particular, we discuss the pros and cons of ‘mission’ or ‘service learning’ travel and discuss a new model of ‘immersive philanthropy’ — high-impact, high-engagement programs for multi-generational family philanthropic engagement.
