Season 2 Opener: Musings

Welcome Back, Giving Voices Community!
In the Season 2 opener, I'm musing on the history of the word "philanthropy," attempts to break down that concept by applying the 5 Ts - globally understood to be Time, Talent, Treasure, Ties and Testimony - and on the importance of storytelling as a method for building understanding about philanthropy and the social sector. 

Bonus: For more about these topics, check out these resources referenced throughout the episode.

• The University of Kent Special Collections & Archives blog post, "The History of Philanthropy"
• The Milken Institute's blog post, "Considering Your Philanthropy Holistically"
• Philanthropy's New Voice: Building Trust with Deeper Stories and Clear Language, a report co-produced by Council on Foundations and Center for Public Interest Communications
