Now Trending: A Quick Roundup of Our Most Popular Blogs
Foundation Source sits at the unique intersection of philanthropy, wealth and technology, and our blog is here to serve as a curated collection of thought leadership, trending news stories and new resources that we believe will have the biggest impact on these sectors. So which topics did our blog subscribers find the most interesting in 2024? In no particular order, here were the top five blog posts of last year.
Truth be told, we were excited to see this kit make the list! Our subject matter experts worked tirelessly on our annual guide, which is a collection of new resources for donors, advisors and fundraisers to inspire creative, thoughtful and tax-wise gifts – now and in the future.
Our top blog post of last year in our Advisor Series was an article by our Chief Marketing Officer Hannah Shaw Grove as featured in Investments & Wealth Monitor, which explores the case for making philanthropy a core piece of a wealth management practice and uncovers how it can be a powerful tool for helping clients build meaningful family legacies. Packed with insights, you’ll discover ways that charitable expertise can strengthen a holistic advisory practice.
Our Foundation Friday Series has long been a fan favorite with our readers. Taking the top spot last year was our interview with the Roy Cockrum Foundation, which is focused on helping nonprofit theaters in the U.S. create bold, world-class performing arts projects—even without the means to generate large sums of money or draw big audiences.
Giving & Investing Trends often catch the eye of our readers but one topic in particular seemed to garner the most views: collective giving. Also known as giving circles, this is a rapidly expanding movement in philanthropy in which individuals pool their resources to make significant philanthropic impact.
We asked our experts to the share the most important milestones that private foundations need to know throughout the calendar year. Philanthropists and their professional advisors flocked to download this new resource, which can save a ton of research time. From tax filing deadlines to information on the minimum distribution requirement, this checklist is a great resource to keep on hand.
