Scenario
Giving one request at a time
Friends, schools and charities all ask, and each family member answers alone.
- The situation
- The family gives generously, but each person decides alone as requests arrive. Nobody can say what the family supports as a whole, and the younger members have no part in it.
- What we would do
- We help the family agree a giving strategy, give the rising generation a role in it and report on what the money supports.
- Where it leaves the family
- Requests are answered against a strategy the whole family agreed, and the younger members have a say.
