WRITE TO BEAR ALMS

We are upon yet another Black Philanthropy Month so that can only mean it's time for Halima to do her thang! Over the past year, I have thought carefully about my identity and value, and part of that has been establishing my identity as a giver. Having learned from this careful thought, I asked Halima to offer insights about having a philanthropic identity.

She has some good stuff! Halima gave insight about what it means to have a philanthropic identity, how anyone can have said identity, and the impact of clearly understanding your philanthropic identity to the people who surround you. There is also a very cool portion of the conversation dedicated to understanding the difference between philanthropy as power and philanthropy as influence.
