A widespread practice in recent years, the creation of young donors’ circles is a trend that continues to this day, and for good reason. Back in 2012, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts was one of the pioneering cultural institutions in Quebec to develop this type of innovative, formative program to ensure its philanthropic succession with the creation of its Young Philanthropists Circle.
More than 10 years after its inception, it’s time for some introspection: what are the impacts and progress of the Young Philanthropists’ Circle, and how does it fit into the overall strategy of the Fondation du Musée?
Philippe Archambault, Chairman of the MBAM Foundation’s Cercle des Jeunes Philanthropes Committee, and Catherine Doyle, Director of Annual Giving at the MBAM Foundation, will share some of the keys to success and present the challenges facing this philanthropic program, which continues to evolve and adapt to the institution’s major priorities.
Moderated by Louis Moubarak, President of the AFP-Québec Education Committee.
