The Center for Civil Society is hosting an important conference next Wednesday, April 6, in Winter Park, Fla., (at the lovely Alfond Inn) to hash out that often-troubled relationship of Democracy and Philanthropy in America — how they mix, mingle, interact, squabble, and whether it’s all to the benefit, or detriment, of civil society. Senator Ben Sasse, Heather Higgins, Les Lenkowski, David Bahnsen, and many more will be on hand to keynote and to take on questions (such as is philanthropy too political? and can policy reforms make philanthropy work better for America?) and to offer wisdom on how to give wisely. There is still time to sign up. If you are a giver, a doer, or a thinker, you’re welcome to attend. Find the agenda here, and should it float your boat, then do register (before Friday, April 1) right here.
