Balancing Personal and Family Philanthropy

Managing an individual’s interest is vital in deciding where and whom to give. That gets complicated for family foundations who are managing multiple perspectives that may or may not align with the original vision for their foundations giving. The program will discuss how to navigate and engage a philanthropic family with many divergent interests while effectively blending personal and family giving. This program is hosted by Forefront.

Target Audience:

The series is designed for staff involved with family foundations or advised funds at a community foundation; however, grantmakers of all types are invited to attend.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the concepts and strategies related to effective family philanthropy.
• Learn with like-minded family philanthropy professionals in Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, and Illinois.
• Use tools and best practices to design and implement effective family philanthropic strategies.
