This Summit on Youth Philanthropy honored the recent Youth Philanthropy Day Proclamation of Governor Pritzker, and it brought together youth leaders with leadership in business, financial, philanthropy and government to create a strategic plan to engage future philanthropists and support civic engagement. Their goal was to devise a plan for youth philanthropy programs in the Chicago area, throughout Illinois and the TPI network.
