The Learning to Give curriculum is an exciting education series with character-building lesson plans for grades 6-8. We are proud to present this series to you. It is the result of a collaboration between Millennium and Learning to Give – Indiana. Currently, about 920 students are learning about philanthropy through the Learning to Give curriculum.
The lesson plans not only emphasize the value of leadership; they also share the history, principles, and practices of philanthropy, which the Center on Philanthropy defines as “voluntary action for the public good”. These standards-based, easy-to-use lesson plans are divided into four sections:
- Definition of Philanthropy
- Philanthropy and Leadership
- Philanthropy and Community
- Nonprofit Sector as a Career Option
In addition to Learning to Give's collaboration with Millennium, the
organization has recently partnered with The League, a nonprofit organization
that is structured like a sports league, but hosts events that allow students
to focus on the givin
