Exploring big ideas

In the Philanthropy Plugged In podcast series, we explore big ideas with our guests:

  • Is technology broadening access to philanthropy?
  • Are new applications and platforms accelerating social change?
  • How do donors use technology to give?
  • What does creating community in the digital age look like? (Many of us have new experiences related to this question as a result of COVID-19.)
  • How do nonprofits leverage technology for fundraising?

The discussion guides for the podcast episodes are designed to be working documents. Please share them with colleagues and friends, use them to spark conversations, and apply the information gained to new strategies and new ways of thinking about philanthropy and community.
