| JESSIE SPECTOR was determined to give away her inheritance as soon as she received it. She said her parents intervened and advised that, at 23, she should take time to think about it. What if she wanted to buy a house one day?
When Naomi Sobel learned at 20 that she would receive a large inheritance, she said she knew it was a lot of money, and for her, too, it raised questions about a house: would it be enough to buy one? She laughs at this today, since it would have paid for... |
| Jul 4th, 2012 - Letter from the Ellingers
Dear Friends:
Today is independence day, and we want you to celebrate with us.
As of July 1st, we officially "semi-retired" from 30 years as organizers, writers, counselors and workshop leaders in the fields of donor organizing and philanthropy promotion. Anne shifted out of her staff role at Bolder Giving while remaining on the board, and Christopher shifted from board member to board member emeritus. This completes a transition that began two years ago to the day, when... |

"We get all these messages in the media news that you never have enough. So whether you actually don’t have enough, and are scraping by, or you’ve gotten used to a certain lifestyle that you feel like you have to sustain, but still you’re feeling pinched by, or even if you have way more than enough, but something could happen in the market - which, of course, it will, at some point -there are many different ways to deal with risk. And the ways that we feel are really ... |
| Chelsea Logan was a month and a half away from her 21st birthday when her father died suddenly from a heart attack. As her family struggled to cope with the loss, she received another shock: Her father, a longtime federal government worker, had left her $167,000.
"To hear that amount at 20 years old is kind of mind-boggling," Logan, now 23, says.
Logan, a finance major at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., used the money to start her own business. "My inheritance has... |
| African American donors give away higher percentages of their incomes than white donors, according to a new study.
But they don't see themselves as big players in the charitable arena, and that presents an image problem, say experts like Judy Belk, a senior vice president for Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors.
"African Americans have been very uncomfortable with the title of philanthropist," Belk said. "If you don't see role models who look like you when people start talking... |

 | Walt Disney's grandniece knows that life can be far from a fairy tale, but the award winning filmmaker and philanthropist is bringing us closer.
I was afraid to be bold in my 20s. The first leap I took was moving from Los Angeles to New York City - far from my family of origin - to have the space to become myself.
My husband and I started a family foundation in 1991 because it seemed like a good thing to do. The next year I went on the NY Women’s Foundation board. On this... |
 | At an age when most guys still hone their skateboard moves, Jason Franklin got a call from his grandfather’s secretary, asking him if he’d like to get involved in the family foundation.
“Up until that point,” Franklin recalls, “I had no idea we had a family foundation.”
Just 22, Franklin (pictured) began a life-changing journey into philanthropy. Today he gives away one-fourth of his income and serves as executive director of Bolder Giving at... |
 | At 29, Michael J. Greene of Chicago is a young philanthropist in the making, though he hardly fits the stereotype. He doesn’t drive a Porsche; in fact, he just sold his VW Passat with 90,000 miles and uses public transit to get around.
Nor does Greene have a huge bankroll to back his pet project, a new website called WorldPennyJar dedicated to disaster relief, health, education and the environment.
Yet Greene is light-years ahead of many in his age group to grasp how... |
