The Women’s Philanthropy Institute, in the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, has conducted dozens of studies examining how and why women and men give. Individually, as well as in the aggregate, the research affirms that gender matters in philanthropy. With the personal wealth of women rising, and women playing major roles in shaping the future direction of the economic, social, and political arenas – not only as individual philanthropists but also as decisionmakers for corporate and foundation programs - the power and potential of women philanthropists is exponential. Join Jeannie Sager, Director, and Dianne Bailey, Council Chair, of the Women’s Philanthropy Institute as we seek to better understand where, how, and why women and men give differently and how you can use the research to enhance and inform generosity.
