What is a Donor-Advised Fund? Should I give locally or support global causes? Where can I turn for advice when I get a big bonus and want to give some back? Join Net Impact, Finance Club, Consulting Club, and Nonprofit Board Fellows for Social Impact Week 2024 with Jackie Downing and Sharon Cappetta from the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven for a workshop on how to think about your own giving strategy for the future!
