Giving and Thanksgiving

from WSJ Opinion: Free Expression · host Gerard Baker, Editor at Large, The Wall Street Journal

The time of year when we express our gratitude for our many blessings offer an opportunity to reflect on the importance of giving.  On this episode of Free Expression, Gerry Baker speaks with financier John Studzinski, who shares lessons learned from his own philanthropy in a new book, “A Talent for Giving, Creating a More Generous Society That Benefits Everyone.” They discuss the projects he started to show the difference between philanthropy and charity, why giving can be a currency for change, and what can be done to broaden what he calls the “community of mankind.” Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
