The Importance of Youth in Philanthropy

During COVID times, one of the things I miss most is public speaking. While I've done some great talks virtually with school groups and soccer teams and even adults fundraising for St. Jude, I miss the feeling of expressing myself, promoting my mission, and inspiring other people to engage in philanthropy in a live setting!

Below are two super quick clips from last November when I was asked to speak on a panel for the annual awards of the Association of Fundraising Professionals. I think they are especially good reminders of what is clearly so important these days: getting young people to think about other people and about how we can ALL make a difference if we care!

Second quote about how adults can encourage youth in philanthropy!

Thanks for watching, and remember that my fundraising is going strong this summer with my Juggling for Jude Challenge and all of my other work, so please feel free to support with a donation to help kids with cancer. Just go HERE any time!

Thank you for your support,
