Philanthropy Leaders at Milken Conference Call for Greater Collaboration and Generosity
At the Milken Global Conference in Los Angeles, leaders from major philanthropic foundations discussed the need for increased collaboration and generosity in the face of global and national challenges. The panel, featuring representatives from the McKnight Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, Blackstone Charitable Foundation, Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, emphasized the importance of adopting a 'builder' mindset rather than a 'fixer' approach. They highlighted the potential for greater impact through cooperative efforts and increased financial contributions from the ultra-wealthy, who have seen significant wealth growth in recent years.
