Ashley Blanchard
Lansberg Gersick & Associates
Ashley Blanchard is a next gen donor who now advises on family governance. In Generation Impact, Blanchard noted one of the common trends with next gen donors is a desire to learn together and to have philanthropy connect them to one another: “One of my roles as an advisor is to help clients figure out how to identify and explore common interests and values…part of my role as an advisor is to provide that shared learning experience.”
Building on this insight, Blanchard was featured in Family Business Magazine where she notes the impetus to discuss systemic racism often comes from next gen individuals. "Some families view these conversations as opportunities for engagement that are healthy for the family system... in families less open to candid discussion, the challenge is to frame the issue in a way that doesn't alienate people." Families with aligned purposes and values, she notes, are often better-equipped to have these conversations, especially when family leaders embrace the uncomfortable.

Emily Davis
Emily Davis Consulting & Emily Davis Giving Fund
Emily brings her insights as a next gen donor and expert in nonprofit fundraising and board governance to talk about best practices in nonprofit leadership and bridging gaps across generational challenges. Just like in the book, Generation Impact, Davis shares a common challenge that next gen donors face when they’re treated she says, “like an ATM.” Next gen donors want to be taken seriously as capable contributors having both, “means and a brain,” and to be appreciated for “the skill and smarts that [they] bring to the table.” Building relationships with next gen donors should be a genuine two-way conversation based on trust and communication, she reminds us. Once they get close to an organization, Davis conveys, next gen donors will begin to understand the need for core operating support, learn to see from the nonprofit’s perspective and grow to be a trusted alley.

Hadi Partovi
Code.org®
Partovi is a next gen tech entrepreneur, investor in name-brand successes, and a donor who at 40 knew he wanted to use his resources to improve the world, especially the American education system: “What I wanted to do next was more focused on impact… my third start-up code.org [is] dedicated to the vision that every student in every school should have the opportunity to learn computer science.”
Fueled by his personal experience, Hadi explains to Sharna, “I also believe that being an immigrant has fed my entrepreneurship spirit because it is this voyage of leaving everything behind and creating a new life in an undiscovered country. You take the risk of leaving one place and then jumping with both feet into the complete unknown.”
His entrepreneurial spirit combined with his own talents led Hadi not just to be a donor but also to make code.org his life’s work and nurture others’ talents. As stated in Generation Impact: “He believes in using talent—in the form of trained teachers—as the level for systematic change in the education system. He believes in teaching the skills necessary for young people to develop the talent needed in today’s economy. And, he believes his own talent is the most valuable gift he can give, even compared to the millions of dollars he’s invested as a donor.”
Given that next gen donors yearn to engage meaningfully with the organizations they support, leveraging and valuing the ways they contribute their talents, can lead to transformational relationships between next gen donors, grantees and the philanthropic professionals with whom they work.

Jenna Weinberg
Duke University - The Fuqua School of Business
Since being featured in Generation Impact, Jenna worked at a boutique consulting firm focused on business and political strategy through a social change lens. There she realized that “every collaboration I fostered relied on making the business case for positive social impact and illuminating that market-based solutions are integral to solving our world’s greatest inequities. I also learned that those closest to the problem are often those closest to the solutions and how transformative it is to center those most affected within any decision-making process.” These insights were valuable to her when considering both philanthropic and financial investments, and she increasingly saw impact investing as an important tool. One element she focused on was diversity in the finance industry, coming to believe that it both makes business sense and is the right thing to do to increase investment with minority and women led asset management firms. She collaborated on the Diverse Asset Managers Initiative (read more below), which encourages institutional investors to increase their investments with diverse managers. Then she explored investing with a gender lens, an investment strategy to use gender-related criteria in investment decisions to advance gender equality in society.
For someone who always worked in the nonprofit field, Jenna declared her commitment to impact investing by attending business school to deepen her knowledge of the field. While Jenna went to learn, she found that her next gen perspective on the market was something investment firms were eager to learn from her. In this next chapter of her career, she’s joined an investment advisory firm to help endowments and foundations integrate impact investing into their portfolios, wanting to make sure that a foundation’s assets invested in the market support, rather than undermine, their grantmaking goals.

Sapphira Goradia
Vijay and Marie Goradia Foundation
When Sapphira Goradia began running her family’s foundation, The Vijay and Marie Goradia Foundation, she was tasked with creating a strategy, mission, and focus for the foundation. In a recent article, Goradia writes about the specific parameters her family’s foundation generated to further focus their grant-making, especially as U.S. funders supporting work in India. Goradia states: “I spent my first year at the foundation annoying my family with questions about their values, passions, and beliefs about the world…from the discussions that followed, I was able to build a funding strategy that we felt passionate about as a family and believed in strongly”. Goradia illustrates the expedition that many next-gen donors face when navigating inheriting their family’s story and legacy and that these are in fact “engines” not anchors that inform next-gen donors’ decisions today.

Valaida Fullwood
The Soul of Philanthropy Reframed and Exhibited
Valaida’s exhibition, “The Soul of Philanthropy Reframed and Exhibited" (TSOP) presenting stories of generosity among Americans of African descent. Fullwood states, “traditional philanthropy does not account for the many informal giving pathways in which African-American communities participate and tends to overlook people of color in traditional giving spaces.” Fullwood represents the eagerness of next-gen donors to systematically change philanthropy and disrupt the “traditional” giving strategies, in turn bolstering donors’ capacity to give more and wiser. This idea was made manifest when Fullwood became a leader and founding member of the New Generation of African American Philanthropists (NGAAP), a giving circle that taps its members’ time, talent, treasure, and ties to contribute grantmaking and civic engagement in their local community.

Victoria Rogers
Black Trustee Alliance for Art Museums
Rogers discovered the significance of philanthropy through familial encouragement and early exposure to volunteerism while teaching art in an after-school program. Since then, Rogers’s passion for the arts was catalyzed and she discussed her artistic explorations in a recent spotlight in ArtNet News. Given her commitment to building and making art institutions more equitable spaces of cultural engagement, Rogers became the co-chair of the Brooklyn Museum’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Access Committee, serves on the Executive Committee of Creative Time, and more recently co-founded and co-chairs the Black Trustee Alliance (BTA) for Art Museums—all while studying for an MBA and now an MFA in industrial and civic service design at Parsons.
As part of BTA’s mission to increase the inclusion of Black perspectives in the art world, Rogers, who also serves on BTA’s Executive Committee, helped produce a recent report called Cultural Capital: The State of Museums and Their Investing, along with Upstart Co-Lab and the Association of Art Museum Directors. The report found that “86% of next-gen art collectors rank social impact and purpose-led investment as the highest motivation when buying art. This outlook is guiding next gen’s donations to nonprofit institutions that share their commitment to impact investing.”
