Ep. 68 Why Generosity Is About More Than Money with Julia Healey

What inspires people to give — and how do those motivations evolve over time? In this episode of Money to Give, Rick Peck sits down with Julia Healey for a thoughtful conversation about generosity, donor-advised funds, legacy planning, and the deeply personal nature of philanthropy. Julia shares how her own perspective on giving evolved from childhood through adulthood, why people continue to give generously even during periods of economic uncertainty, and how today’s donors increasingly seek connection, clarity, and meaningful impact through their charitable decisions.Throughout the episode, Julia explains how donor-advised funds and fiscal sponsorship can help individuals and families become more intentional with their giving while also creating opportunities to involve the next generation in philanthropy. The conversation explores family values, charitable storytelling, impact measurement, multi-generational giving, and why philanthropy is often about far more than simply writing a check. Whether you are a donor, nonprofit leader, financial advisor, or someone beginning to think more intentionally about generosity and legacy, this episode offers practical insights and heartfelt reflections on how giving can strengthen both communities and families over time.Contact Rick Peck:Website: https://www.thephilanthropyguy.comEmail: [email protected] A call: Rick Peck's CalendarSign Up For Charitable Giving Newsletter: Charitable Giving NewsletterLinkedIn: Richard PeckContact Julia Healey:Website: unitedcharitable.orgLinkedIn: Julia Healey, MPH
