Description
Gender matters in charitable giving - as women, we contribute our financial resources and time differently than men. We play a significant role in improving our communities and focusing energy on our most pressing societal problems. So, how are we, as women, making decisions about how, where and when to give? How do we see ourselves as "philanthropists" or "fundraisers"? Our panelists will share their insights, expertise, and journeys in the world of philanthropic giving, and inspire us to harness our power in new ways.
Panelists:
- Meg Smith, Director of the Vermont Women's Fund
- Yael Friedman, Senior Development Officer for the University of Vermont Medical Center’s Foundation
- Shireen Hart, Co-Founder of LIFT Giving Circle and Shareholder/Director Primmer, Piper, Eggleston & Cramer PC
