ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
This conference for Givers, Doers, and Thinkers will take place in Winter Park, Florida, on April 6th. This daylong conference is the second in a series of events that will convene donors and civil society leaders to discuss and to develop ways to strengthen American civil society. Our aim through these conferences is to advance a robust vision for charitable giving that is grounded in the Judeo-Christian understanding of charity, to champion local giving, and to share ideas on how to conserve the natural and cultural goods of our communities and our nation.
