SUMMARY:Celebrating Black Philanthropy: Connecticut’s Community Giving
DESCRIPTION:(L-R) Panelists Carl Hardrick\, Paula Irvin\, JoAnn Price\, Daniel Trust. Moderator Babz Rawls-Ivy \nPresented in partnership: \nThe Community Foundation for Greater New Haven\nFairfield County’s Community Foundation\nHartford Foundation for Public Giving\nThe Prosperity Foundation \nJoin us for a virtual conversation with philanthropists from across the state of Connecticut who have identified a need and are “giving gifts of time\, talent and treasure to make life better for others.” \nWe often think that philanthropy requires long-term planning\, large sums of up-front money\, and a particular socioeconomic status to be considered a philanthropist. What is needed is a heart to give. The word “philanthropy” means “love of humanity.” It is the desire to promote the welfare of others\, expressed mainly by the generous donation of money to good causes\, but nowhere in that definition does it mention the amount of money required. You merely have to have a heart to give\, and as the national Black Philanthropy Month theme states\, the “fierce urgency of NOW!” \nPanelists\nCarl Hardrick\, Wilson-Gray YMCA; Hartford Communities That Care Crisis Intervention Team\nPaula Irvin\, President\, New Haven Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority\, Inc.\nJoAnn Price\, Co-Founder and Managing Partner\, Fairview Capital Partners\, Inc.\nDaniel Trust\, Executive Chairman\, Daniel Trust Foundation \nModerator\nBabz Rawls-Ivy\, Editor\, The Inner-City News; Host/Co-Producer\, LoveBabz LoveTALK; Founder\, The Freed Woman Fund \nRegister Now\nObserved every August\, Black Philanthropy Month is a global celebration. A new organizing concept frames the BPM campaign each year. The theme for #BPM2022 is “Fierce Urgency of Now!” \nHosted by The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven.
