In light of the current economic crisis, charities face greater pressure as they strive to deliver essential services and meet growing demand for the communities they serve. In this episode, we take a look at the effects of the cost of living crisis on local communities, and the ever-increasing demand for philanthropic giving.
We’re joined by Dr. Beth Breeze, Director Centre of Philanthropy, University of Kent, and author of ‘In Defence of Philanthropy’ to explore different types of donors and the benefits of giving. We’re also joined by Claire Marks, Chair of Trustees for The Bartlett Foundation, a long-term supporter of the Foundation discussing their reasons for giving and their own philanthropic journey.
