What if the secret to a thriving nonprofit sector lies in the power of trust and flexibility? Join me as we uncover the potential of unrestricted funds and trust-based philanthropy with insights from Carrie Wood, CEO of the Sacramento Region Community Foundation and their Big Day of Giving event. We explore the shifting dynamics of giving, especially in a post-COVID world, where younger donors are stepping up through giving circles and engaging with philanthropy in unique ways. Discover how the anticipated wealth transfer to the next generation could redefine the landscape of charitable giving, and learn why empowering nonprofits with operational flexibility is crucial for long-term stability.

In addition to understanding the trends that are shaping philanthropy, we dive into the community's vibrant spirit of giving. With Big Day of Giving's Plus One Campaign, the foundation is making philanthropy accessible to all, with minimal barriers to entry.  Even the smallest of actions and thoughtful contributions can create a meaningful impact in the Sacramento region and that's what BDOG is all about.
