Critical Conversation Starter: The Evolving Role and Impact of Philanthropic and Non-Profit Organiza

Philanthropic and non-profit organizations throughout Wisconsin provide significant services, opportunities, and support in multiple ways. Here in Milwaukee, the diverse missions and outreach of Bader Philanthropies, the Greater Milwaukee Foundation and United Way address key issues including employment, education, transportation, and health care.

The pandemic and protests against systemic racism have amplified these issues and the disproportionate way in which communities already struggling are being further negatively impacted. These organizations are part of response initiatives coordinating and expanding access to these fundamental needs – the resulting efforts are visible through the projects they support and the demonstrated ways that they lead by example.

Join us for a panel discussion including the following participants:
– Nicole Angresano, Vice President of Community Impact, United Way
– Ian Bautista, Senior Director of Civic Engagement, Greater Milwaukee Foundation
– Frank Cumberbatch, Vice President – Engagement, Bader Philanthropies
– Miryam Rosenzweig, President, and CEO, Milwaukee Jewish Federation

Tuesday, November 10, 7 pm CT
Registration is Required to Access the Zoom Session

This program is free and open to the public.
