“Over the next few years, I want to volunteer at least once every two months with a local organization. Ideally, I want to commit to one place to learn its story, understand its struggles, and grow my understanding of the people it serves. . .

This class distributed funds to two local non-profit organizations: The Happy Foundation and Hagar Ruth. We're looking forward to the good that grows from this! Link in bio.

Thank you to every one of our professors. You're the backbone that makes Phil Lab possible.

What a weekend at the 14th Annual Philanthropy Lab Leadership Summit in FW! Our faculty brought their best to the conversation: panel discussions on student decision-making & course structure, wisdom on readings & exercises, current themes in philanthropy and . . .

[The Philanthropy Lab @ThePhilLab]

Faculty ended the Summit energized and ready to head back to their campuses, where our students will direct millions of dollars to the nonprofits that need them most. That work starts with faculty who believe in experiential learning, who trust student judgment, and who show up.

This week, we're thinking about the quiet power of showing up. The phone call. The donation. The time you spend listening. The small decision to act.

Your bit of good matters more than you know.

“My giving goal is to get involved with the development and building of a small nonprofit to help turn it into something amazing. I hope to be able to give at least 10 percent of my yearly income to charities. . .
