It is a school-based programme which works with local charities to help increase community awareness and knowledge of philanthropy among young people. As of 2013, it is part of the curriculum in 75 secondary schools. Pupils visit their chosen local charity and prepare presentations showing why that charity is worthy of support. The group judged to have made the best presentation in each school is granted £3,000 to award to their charity.〔〔(Pupils rein in the cash for riding charity (From Borehamwood Times) )〕〔(Academy pupils win ÂŁ3,000 for disabled charity (From Times Series) )〕 Over 10,000 pupils have participated in the program. * Next Generation Philanthropy is an educational program directed in partnership with the Institute for Family Business.〔 It provides information and education to younger philanthropists in a group setting. * Think Philanthropy is a series of lectures and workshops discussing and providing information about current issues and trends in the field of philanthropy, such as effective charitable asset management, climate change, funding in areas of high risk, and funding in an economic downturn.〔("White Paper 1023 ).
