Session Highlight:
NCEA is pleased to feature A Conversation on Philanthropy and the Future of Catholic Schools, on Wednesday, October 26. For decades, individuals and foundations have generously ensured children nationwide have access to a Catholic education. In this discussion, a panel of leading donors representing various geographies and funding strategies will describe what they are trying to accomplish, where they have struggled and how they think about effective Catholic school philanthropy. This presentation is organized by The Philanthropy Roundtable and FADICA in partnership with NCEA.
