Our last General Meeting in 2021 was held virtually on November 16, 2021. The topic titled PHILANTHROPY AS CIVIC ENGAGEMENT: Empowering the Next Generation of Philanthropists, was discussed by three panelists: Jennifer Lindholm, Charles W. Evans, and Angela Sanchez (see the photograph of the zoom General Meeting, below). We learned how the 2021 class researched a pool of 42 organizations, selected three finalists, and cooperated with their management to prepare and present grant funding proposals for specific projects. The students evaluated the proposals and voted to allocate the available funding of $80,000 among the three non-profits.
The attending audience participated in lively discussions with the panelists who shared their experiences with Honors Collegium course.
