What do we do?
At TPI we provide you with a unique and powerful youth program for your community that focusses on empowering your youth in understanding the art, science and business of philanthropy.
Helping youth to understand the role of philanthropy in their lives, and in those of their community, can affect their willingness and ability to support those in need throughout their lives, but it also significantly benefits many other parts of the individual, the organizations that incorporate them, the broader community, and the future of society in its entirety.
Right from day one of exploring if this program is right for you, our experienced staff are there to help identify your goals, curate the program to meet the unique needs of the people you serve, and ultimately help you better connect with the individuals and organizations in your community.
When you license a Three Pillars Initiative program for your community, you instantly become part of our national network and tap into the following benefits:
