The Walrus Talks Shifting Power in Philanthropy

Philanthropy makes more of an impact than we realize, and the sector is undergoing major shifts. The Great Wealth Transfer is in progress and younger generations are inheriting trillions; technology is evolving sometimes for the better and sometimes not; and new strategies for giving are reshaping the relationships between donors and charities. But there are still obstacles to funds reaching the people who need them most.

Speakers come together at The Walrus Talks Shifting Power in Philanthropy to discuss what the future of philanthropy looks like. What are the innovations and advancements in philanthropic giving? How can we break down barriers to make philanthropic funding more accessible and inclusive? With donor bases now comprising younger generations and more women, what changes will we see in giving trends? How can we embed equity and reconciliation into philanthropy?

Join us in Toronto, or online, to learn about the practices and people shaping philanthropy in Canada right now.
