Building for Philanthropy’s Future: Honoring the Past, Responding to the Present, Anticipating the Future
2006 is the 50th anniversary of the Foundation Center and we invite you to join us in celebrating the contributions the Center has made to organized philanthropy and grantseeking nonprofits during its last half-century of service to the field. Honoring past achievement sets the stage for a timely and provocative discussion about philanthropy’s future. You are invited to join in the discussion and to explore with distinguished presenters themes that are critical to the success of the sector, specifically, how to:
Innovate new solutions to old problems with increasingly scarce resources
Blend business, nonprofit, and public perspectives to create real value for real people
Bridge gaps in organizational structures through creative alliances
Demonstrate the value of organized philanthropy in a changing world
Confirmed presenters include:
Janet S. Greenlee, Associate Professor, University of Dayton
Michael Parks, President, The Dayton Foundation
Judith M. Thompson, Executive Director, The Kettering Fund
When: Wednesday, October 18, 2006, 12:30 - 2:30pm
Where: Centerville Library, 111 Spring Valley Road, Centerville, OH 45458
A light lunch will be served. The program is free, but registration is required. You may register online, in person at the Foundation Center-Cleveland reference desk, or by calling (216) 861-1934, x25.
