We will explore the various dimensions and contours of our identities — race, class, gender, wealth (amount/source/control), privilege, passion, education, cultural context, philanthropic history, and more — intersect and shape our personal giving journeys. Reflecting on and disentangling these dimensions is the essential first step to being an intentional and effective giver. Together we will explore questions such as: How do you show up in your philanthropy? How do you want to show up?
Session 1: Grappling with Identity & Power
January 26, 2022 | 12-4 p.m. ET
What are you passionate about and why? How did those priorities evolve and how can you consider the dynamics of race, class, power, privilege, and more as you refine your priorities?
Session 2: Your Giving - Up, Down, & All Around
February 23, 2022 | 12-4 p.m. ET
How is your giving informed and impacted by the relationships you have? How do generational and family dynamics manifest in your philanthropy? What type of relationships do you want to build with peers, partners, and others? How do you want to show up for others?
