About the presentation: Over the years, the role of women in philanthropy has evolved dramatically. Gone are days where the bridge group all gave $50 to their favorite charities and thought they were making a difference
Today, women are running major for-profit and not-for-profit organizations and have significant discretion over their own charitable dollars and understand the importance of influencing women to make meaningful gifts, both during and after their lifetimes.
Join us to discuss how some local organizations are tapping into these women donors and what strategies they have found that work and which ones may be ahead of their time.
