The Giving USA data for 2018 reflects what we in the philanthropy business have seen for about a decade: individual giving patterns and behavior are changing. Philanthropists now view capital deployment across a spectrum of models as more effective than pure grant-making alone. How can you best advise your clients, donors, and partners to adapt strategy to this new reality?

You will leave with a more tangible understanding of the three dynamics at play in the philanthropic industry: Demographic Shifts, the Tax Code Changes and New Funding Models. Last, we will discuss various ways to use existing charitable vehicles to deploy capital for good, creating a social investment portfolio.
