Your Executive Summary

"Whatever you spend is gone. What you keep, someone else gets. What you give is yours forever."
--Dr. Wil Rose

Developing a Strategy for Improving Your Philanthropy

Taking the Next Steps

Understanding who you are and what motivates your giving is just the first step in the Philanthropic Journey to Significance™. Congratulations on completing this important step of sharing your personal information with us. In the next week, you will receive a Comprehensive Donor Profile report in the mail that will help you to dig deeper into the specific areas you about which you are concerned.

The outcome of taking these surveys will allow you to begin making a difference in your giving - and to experience the joy that comes when you begin to complete your unique philanthropic "sculpture." Knowing your skills, abilities and interests is a bit like knowing how to sculpt. But it won't make much difference until you actually take out the mallet and chisels.

This process will help you develop your unique personal philanthropic mission statement and operating principles. All this is preparation for you to practice your philanthropy - to create your own sculpture. You may find that these are new experiences for you and you may not be sure how you should best proceed. If that's the case, you may be ready for a philanthropic coach.

Throughout this process it is important to remember that this is your "sculpture." Only you know what the finished product looks like. Pull out the mallet and chisel and begin to carve your sculpture by making a few contributions that fit within your unique profile and motivations. Then evaluate what happens.

This is a process that lasts a lifetime. The results of this sculpture will leave a legacy to future generations - a legacy that has much more value than any work of art by Michelangelo or any of the masters.
