About the event:
Is it time for a new model of philanthropy to meet our rapidly changing world with increasingly complex problems? Do we need new ways to understand what makes a philanthropist, how they give and why?
To celebrate National Philanthropy Day, Simon Fraser University is assembling social change leaders and current and future philanthropists for a conversation moderated by CBC’s Gloria Macarenko about how philanthropy can evolve (or if it has to) to tackle society’s most pressing challenges.
At Rethinking Philanthropy you will hear stories of donors and organizations making an impact; stories of lived experience, of struggles and successes; and stories of results –– of how this kind of philanthropy has led to real social change.
Volunteers for this event will support general event logistics.
