Thank you to all of you who signed up for our 2022 New Year’s Revolutions workshop. This was the first year we offered it entirely online. Kofo Anifalaje and and Jillian White offered self-reflection questions and concrete tools to make the process of creating a giving plan more clear. Here are resources from the interactive workshop for anyone who wants to have their giving reflect their values.

Not quite like being there, but it will show you how we work through this process.

Action Steps for 2022
Here are the questions we posed for reflection as we wound down the workshop:
- What are you intentions for giving in 2022?
- How can you build on commitments, relationships and practices from 2021 and before?
- Who can you ask to support you or join you in building and sustaining your giving practice?
- What’s one action step for your 2022 giving?
