SUMMARY:2025 Philanthropy Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Philanthropy Roundtable where we will use the latest Bank of America Study of Philanthropy to investigate the latest trends in philanthropic giving. \nWith the number of Americans giving to charity on the decline\, many nonprofits increasingly rely on a smaller\, more affluent circle of supporters to meet their fundraising goals. The 2025 Bank of America Study of Philanthropy\, the 10th in a series of biennial reports on giving by wealthy households in the United States\, offers practical insights into where\, how\, and importantly why affluent Americans give and volunteer. This understanding can help build the confidence and increase the success of nonprofit leaders when seeking the support of high-capacity donors. Please join our speaker\, Elizabeth Barnette\, Managing Director\, and Senior Philanthropic Strategist at Bank of America Private Bank\, for a discussion about this important and timely topic. \nThis event will be hosted by Lydia Nikolic\, Managing Director and Private Client Advisor for Brooklyn and Queens at Bank of America Private Bank. \nRSVP
