As “next gen donors” step into their philanthropic roles, they have not only unprecedented financial resources, but also big ideas for how to wield their financial power. They want to disrupt the traditional world of charitable giving, and they want to do so now, not after they retire to a life of philanthropic leisure.

Generation Impact pulls back the curtain on these rising leaders and their “Impact Revolution,” offering both extensive firsthand accounts and expert analysis of the hands-on, boundary-pushing, unconventional strategies next gen donors are beginning to pursue. This fascinating book also shows another side of the donors in Generation Impact: they want to respect the past even as they transform the future. They are determined to honor the philanthropic legacies and values they’ve inherited by making big giving more effective than ever before. If they succeed, they can make historic progress on causes from education to the environment, from human rights to health care.

Based on years of research and close engagement with next gen donors, Generation Impact offers a unique profile of the new faces of philanthropy. Find out, directly from them:

How they want to revolutionize giving to expand its positive impact on our lives and our communities.
Which causes interest them, how they want to engage with those causes … and, perhaps more important, how they do not want to engage.
Which new tools and strategies for change excite them most.
What they are learning from previous generations, and what they want to bring to their work alongside those generations.
How we can all ensure their historic potential is channeled in ways that make our world better.

The Impact Revolution will be messy, but it could also result in solutions for some of our most persistent problems. Generation Impact offers targeted, practical advice to parents, families, and their advisors, as well as nonprofit professionals―those who work closest with these next gen donors―on how to engage, nurture, and encourage them as they reshape major giving and make their mark on history. Help them channel their enthusiasm―and their wealth―to make the most positive difference in a world with such great need.

“When I looked up at the white board where everyone’s values had been written, I saw most everybody had some form of love on their value list. It was like a light being turned on!”

"The photo cards are a remarkable resource for quickly stimulating thoughtful and engaging conversation about the things that are important to them and why. I have used them numerous times with groups of various sizes, ages and relationships – ranging from family boards to workshop attendees. In all cases the photos quickly enabled a much deeper discussion more quickly than otherwise would have happened. Terrific that they are also available on an app!"
