In this lively discussion, our seasoned philanthropists will dive into important debates around timely topics in philanthropy, including existing in perpetuity vs. spending down over time; mission-related investing vs. investing solely for maximizing returns; and the pros and cons of the growing use of 501(c)4 designations in the funding space.
