Washington, DC-Earlier this month, Common Cents co-founder Nora Gross was featured at the National Council on Foundations Annual conference.
Nora participated in a panel discussion titled, Seeding Our Future: Growing the Next Generation of Givers, which focused on youth philanthropy.
Nora shared her early experiences with philanthropy.
The discussion focused on how foundations are engaging youth in philanthropy.
Nora spoke on the topic of how to reach large numbers of young people efficiently while also making sure that the philanthropy becomes part of the educational system.
She also addressed how to ensure that all young people gain a feeling of social responsibility and belonging.
