How the most misunderstood donors understand and share their wealth
Join us for an intimate conversation with two active philanthropists and the longest-serving CEO of YPO Global. In this 90-minute conversation, you will learn first-hand the joy and struggles of first-generation wealth creators. What is their relationship with wealth? How do they approach philanthropy? And how can non-profits meet their own fundraising needs while being empathetic and helpful to these donors?
