Connecting with peers at a next generation event
“ASF's Next Generation programs are a fantastic opportunity to learn more about the wider world of philanthropy by meeting and sharing experiences with other young people. I left with some great new ideas, resources, and a renewed sense of the wonderful possibilities of philanthropic giving.”
