Engaging the Next Generation in Philanthropy: A Panel Discussion

How do you inspire Gen Z and Millennial givers to move from “like” to lasting impact? Join AFP North Louisiana for a practical, fast-paced panel featuring local fundraisers and funders, corporate partners, and emerging leaders who are already mobilizing the next generation to give, volunteer, and lead.

Our panel will unpack what resonates with younger donors—authentic storytelling, transparency, peer-to-peer energy, and clear impact—and show you how to turn those insights into fundraising that works.

Panelists:

Claire Childs, Vintage Realty Company

Delton Smith, SMC Hotels Group

Laurie Boswell, Holy Angels

Andy Pendergrass, Meriwether Wealth and Planning
