Philanthropy can be a powerful way for families to pass along their shared beliefs and values. In accepting his Lifetime Achievement award at a recent Associated Board meeting, long-time donor Lowell Glazer reflected on the value of enabling his grandchildren to be philanthropic from a young age. Lowell challenged and inspired his teenage grandchildren to give charity to different organizations they cared about most.

Now that his grandchildren are grown, Lowell’s legacy to each of them is an Associated fund enabling each of them to carry on their philanthropy to The Associated and other causes meaningful to them. Listen to his impactful story on giving.
