Future Philanthropists introduces children, typically ages 6 to 13, to at least one local nonprofit organization each year as well as the idea of giving, volunteering and philanthropy in general. Familes will get a behind-the-scenes tour, learn about the specified organization and get the opportunity to help that nonprofit.
The program is a win-win as parents and/or grandparents teach their children/grandchildren about organizations and the importance of giving while the nonprofits gain new friends as well as dollars for their efforts. The Watertown Community Foundation will match each family's gift up to $100 for the organization.
If you would like to sign up for Future Philanthropists or would like more information, please call the Foundation office at 882-3731 or email: assistant@watertowncommunityfoundation.org
