Female Donor Behavior: Online Conference Begins Sept. 20

The institute describes the conference as "dynamic, engaging, and inspiring," stating that those participating will:
Much is written about women and money, and research on women's philanthropy is growing. Few opportunities exist, however, to discuss the connections among women, money, and philanthropy. SHEMAKESCHANGE brings these issues together for a richer, more nuanced understanding of how women's attitudes about money shape their charitable giving.
"You can't give if you don't know what you have. One of the most important things to think about in the beginning is, 'Where am I on the GPS?'" Patricia Annino, attorney and estate planning expert, joins a stellar group of financial, legal, and women's philanthropy experts to explore this under-appreciated connection.
Jennifer Buffett, co-founder and President of the NoVo Foundation, will share her experiences in learning to take control of her life and become an equal partner with her husband Peter at the philanthropic table.
This conference will help reframe the conversation for female donors about how their attitudes about money affect their giving.
The Women's Philanthropy Institute is part of the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University. You can register for SHEMAKESCHANGE through the institute home page: http://www.philanthropy.iupui.edu/womens-philanthropy-institute
