Family Giving
Giving as a Family
Family philanthropy is about inviting your children and other family members to share in your charitable interests. It includes learning about charitable opportunities and community issues together, volunteering for a charity that you care about, and making grants. It reflects the interests and passions of family members and can bring your family together in new ways.
The process is unique to every family. A “family” may include: children, siblings, spouses, partners, nieces, nephews, grandparents, cousins, grandchildren, godchildren, friends, and other loved ones. Let the Foundation help you blend your family's ideals, creativity, and passions through your charitable giving.
