Family Philanthropy Roundtable: Engaging the Next Generation

Moving the Needle. Changing Systems. Giving Collaboratives. Impact Investing. Being able to see the impact of giving is a priority for this next generation of donors. As Sharna Goldseker and Michael Moody write in Generation Impact: How Next Gen Donors are Revolutionizing Giving:

“The next generation of major donors will be the most significant philanthropists in history. This is not just because they have unprecedented resources to give. It’s because they want to fundamentally change how giving happens.”

Does this ring true to your experience? What are the benefits and challenges of this approach to philanthropy? Does the next generation support similar or different causes than previous generations? How have family philanthropies in the region effectively engaged the next generation?

Join us for a Family Philanthropy Roundtable where Kerry McHugh, Vice President and Program Officer for the Helen J. Serini Foundation, will provide a brief introduction about next-generation giving and share frustrations and successes from the field. This will be followed by a roundtable where you’ll be able to tap into a wealth of knowledge from your peers.

This program is for Maryland Philanthropy Network members and invited guests only; lunch will be served.
