A book to inspire your inner philanthropist!
Bring a friend and join us in exploring some of the ideas generated by Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen's, "Giving 2.0."
In it, she takes takes readers on a fascinating journey through the fast-changing world of giving, where she promote the idea that "it's not about how much you give, it's about how you give."
As Beth Kanter noted, "the book’s message is simple.: Anyone and everyone who gives anything — time, money, experience, skills, networks — in any amount to create a better world can be philanthropist."
Our book club discussion will be facilitated by Sandy Skees. Sandy Skees, CEO of Communications4Good is the founder of the giving circle, 100+ Women Who Care Santa Cruz.
She is a senior sustainability communications strategist, creating programs that give businesses a way to focus, share and motivate change in the world. Previously a partner at Porter Novelli, Sandy managed the global HP account team in 20 cities/10 countries around the world.
She says she spends as much free time as she can hiking, sitting on beaches, cooking with others and learning something new every day.
