Event Details

Join Bolder Giving on Thursday, October 20th at noon EST for a free teleconference with Charlie Rounds.

 

Charlie Rounds achieved the dream of many entrepreneurs. After 16 years he sold his share of the successful RSVP Vacations, which focused on gay and lesbian travelers. Charlie and his husband Mark could have decided to keep the money and never have to work again.  Instead, they put the entire amount (60% of their net worth) into a donor-advised fund at The Minneapolis Foundation. Their commitment is to give the entire amount out within 15 years to support economic development in local communities of color, international human rights, and GLBT rights. The fund is named The Mark and Charlie Gay Lesbian Fund for Moral Values, so that every gift they make is visible as gay philanthropy. Charlie’s goal is to greatly increase the giving in the gay and lesbian community – in part, by sharing his own story.

Bold Conversations is a monthly phone discussion hosted by Anne Ellinger, co-founder of Bolder Giving (www.boldergiving.org). Each month you can join a conversation with an extraordinary giver who will share strategies, challenges, and excitement about their giving.


The format of each Bold Conversation is a 60 min. free teleconference call.  Anne and the featured guest talk, pausing frequently for questions and comments from listeners.  We aim for an informal, interactive, and frank discussion where listeners apply lessons to their own giving. You can also listen to archived conversations and join online chats with Bold Givers hosted by the Chronicle of Philanthropy.

Please join us!

No matter what your level of giving or the causes you give to, you’ll gain nuggets of wisdom you can apply to your own situation, and be energized by Charlie Rounds's commitment and vision.  

Advisors who work with donors

Please invite your donors to the call!  You are welcome to join as well, so long as you participate by applying the discussion to your personal giving. 

The contact information for joining the call will be provided by email following registration.
