You Can Get More Than You Give—How Philanthropy Can Benefit Your Business and Your Family

February 27, 2025

Presenter, 2025 Generations Family Business Conference


On February 27, 2025, join Downey Brand partner Kristin Capritto at the Capital Region Family Business Center’s 2025 Generations Conference for a discussion about how philanthropy can be a transformative tool for family businesses.

This session will explore how philanthropy and charitable giving not only support business goals but also strengthen the ties between the family members operating them. These benefits are particularly heightened for family businesses and families in which not all family members are involved in the business, with philanthropic planning creating opportunities for connection and kinship which might not otherwise occur. Charitable giving also creates a dedicated space for intergenerational collaboration and frequently results in increased synergy and positive cultural shifts within a family business.

Kristin will be joined by:

  • Jessica Hubbard, Executive Director, Yolo Community Foundation
  • Carol Barsotti, Co-founder, President, and CEO at fieldTRUE

The 2025 Generations Conference is a key event for family businesses in California hosted by the Capital Region Family Business Center (FBC) at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center.
