CAPITAL PHILANTHROPY
The intersection of the application process, grantmaking decision, and grantee relationship building
The threshold between knowing you want to support the community and getting to know targeted nonprofit organizations
Building bridges to a deeper understanding of the concerns and perspectives of nonprofit partners via surveys, roundtables or other convenings
The transfer of family “leadership” from one generation to the next; exploring philanthropic ideals and legacy
