Greetings, Giving Voices community! Listen-in on my coffee chat with my longtime friend, Stephen Jakab. As has been typical throughout our friendship, we cover a lot of territory!
With personal and professional observations and anecdotes, Steve talks about family legacy, describes a new joint philanthropic initiative connecting three generations of Jakabs, and shares a recent conversation with his son about meaningful engagement in the social change sector.
Bonus: Here's the Smithsonian Magazine article that Steve references that defines philanthropy as "recognizing and supporting the humanity of others." And for more stories, research, and information about philanthropy, check out the Smithsonian National Museum of American History's Philanthropy Initiative.
