2013 National Summit on Family Philanthropy

The Future of Family Philanthropy: Predicting and Preparing

The second biennial National Summit on Family Philanthropy was held in Chicago on June 5 and 6, 2013, led by the Founding Frey Foundation Chair for Family Philanthropy, Dr. Michael Moody.

Family donors shared their experiences in pursuing new innovations or embracing change in their family giving. Together, they envisioned a future for family philanthropy and identified action steps to help realize that future. The collective product, The Future of Family Philanthropy: Predicting and Preparing, is a resource for families around the country.
