by Michelle Saport |
The Role of Foundations in Philanthropy and Placemaking in Community Wednesday, Sept. 28, 4-5:30 p.m. Allied Health Science Building, Room 106

What is the history of philanthropy in Alaska and in what direction is it headed? Join the Civic Engagement: Learning by Giving class and guest panelists to learn more about the world of philanthropy in Anchorage. See what possible career paths or connections to philanthropy-perhaps even grant-seeking or grant-making-could be in your future.
