The Art of Sustainable Giving

Join us for a free webinar to learn how to integrate the science of giving into your life, ensuring that generosity remains a source of joy rather than depletion. Using evidence-based strategies, we’ll discuss how to cultivate generosity in a way that is both fulfilling and sustainable, even during challenging times.

Many of us devote our time, energy, and resources to supporting others—whether family, friends, colleagues, patients, or our communities. With a sustainable approach, we can learn to give with intention and lower the risk of burning out.

This engaging webinar explores the many dimensions of giving, from financial contributions to offering time, care, expertise, and advocacy. We’ll examine how generosity plays a role in our daily lives, workplaces, and nonprofit efforts, and how giving is positively associated with well-being and social connections.

Whether you give professionally or personally, this session will provide practical insights to help you give in a sustainable way to support both yourself and others.

This class will be recorded and a one-week link to the recording will be shared with all registered participants. To receive incentive points, attend at least 80% of the live session or listen to the entire recording within one week.
