Philanthropy essentials workshop – giving with impact (Melbourne)

This three-hour workshop will provide an understanding for new staff to philanthropy or those interested in a refresh to:
• Understand the philanthropy landscape
• Learn about approaches to giving in Australia – and policy changes from history to present
• Consider structures and types of giving, from Community Foundations to Private Ancillary Funds (PAFs), Donor Advised Accounts (public ancillary funds), Testamentary Charitable trusts, workplace giving and bequests, through to giving circles
• Share good practice giving in terms of due diligence, collaboration, pay-what-it-takes, reporting and monitoring
• Consider impact through the Periodic Table of Philanthropy, an innovative approach that maps philanthropic elements with outcomes.
• Receive resources

This session is designed for funders and those interested in philanthropy who are either just starting out or who are reflecting on the efficacy of their current impact and evaluation strategies.
