Family philanthropy is a meaningful way to support the causes you care about while strengthening family bonds. By coming together around shared experiences and values, families can deepen their understanding of one another and build lasting relationships.
It’s important to note that different generations may have different priorities and approaches to giving: from traditional grantmaking, to impact investing or exploring new philanthropic strategies. These differences offer an opportunity to better understand one another’s passions and hold meaningful conversations. Arkansas Community Foundation’s Personalized Giving Services can help families navigate these complexities, providing tailored guidance to align your giving with your goals and values. By leveraging these services, families can create a cohesive, impactful giving legacy that strengthens relationships across generations.
What Is Family Philanthropy?
Family philanthropy is the act of giving as a family. Families can practice philanthropy using tools like a family foundation or a Donor Advised Funds (DAF). A DAF with Arkansas Community Foundation provides a flexible, efficient way to establish a lasting giving legacy. The Foundation’s team is local and has extensive knowledge of community needs and the nonprofit in Arkansas. Additionally, we simplify the administrative side of giving, allowing your family to focus on joy of giving.
By partnering with Arkansas Community Foundation, you can ensure your family’s philanthropy is both impactful and enduring for generations to come.
