Make the Connection! Core Democratic Values and Philanthropy
Make the Connection! Core Democratic Values and Philanthropy
Description:
In this unit, the learner will examine the Core Democratic Values of American democracy and connect these values to the area of philanthropy. Throughout our history, the independent sector has played a vital role in establishing the traditions exemplified in the Core Democratic Values - particularly in the area of our society's fundamental beliefs. From the earliest settlers in this country, to the first of the patriots, to the civil rights movements, the philanthropic sector has played an essential role in upholding and instructing citizens about the great traditions embodied in our Core Democratic Values. It is through the activities of the nonprofit and volunteer sector that the fundamental beliefs of the Core Democratic Values are passed on from one generation to another.
