The first in a three-part series on Tools for Philanthropic Impact, convened by Jewish Funders Network (jfunders.org) and the Jewish Communal Fund (jcfny.org). In Session 1: Strategic Philanthropy, we discussed how to focus your philanthropic giving on mission, to find organizations that match your passion, to ensure that an organization is legitimate, to examine the governance of an organization, and to compare and contrast organizations in the field.
