Do you feel frustrated in your giving? Are you asking questions such as:
- Am I really giving to the right causes?
- How do I know if I’m doing the most good?
- Is there a better way?
- Why am I not experiencing joy in my giving?
- Am I just being used?
These questions are common among philanthropists.
Much of humanity is interested in helping others. For high net worth individuals who are trying to discern a path of philanthropy that matches their character and aspiration, how to do this is not always easy discernible. For these individuals, discovering what is at the intersection of capacity and moral purpose clarifies what truly is the individual’s deeper purpose.
Discovering Joy Factors is a CoxNichols process to assist philanthropists in discerning the foundations and core aspects of what brings them joy in helping others. CoxNichols walks alongside you and your family to recall your psychological and sociological journey in your childhood and youth that brought you joy.
The process culminates with the identification of those innate “joy factors” then segues into the development of a philanthropic strategic plan focused on finding and experiencing philanthropic joy.
