Philanthropy U hosted two calls each month for almost two years. The Best Practices in Philanthropy calls featured discussions from leaders in the world of philanthropy around best practices for philanthropists, the charities and foundations they support, and the advisors who want to serve them.

The Philanthropy in Action call series spotlights Non-Profits, NGOs and individuals who are transforming the world. These calls are archived and available for downloading at no expense.
