"As the summer winds down and the meetings and conferences of fall loom, Family Giving News stops to pick up a good book.  In an abbreviated summer issue of our newsletter, we informally poll our board, staff, colleagues, and friends in the field to bring you a look at the bookshelves of today's giving families and their suggestions for the next book on your reading list."

Learn more about what they're reading and what they're recommending here.
Thank you for taking the time to read the SDG Family Ties Newsletter.  We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you in the near future.  Be sure to contact us with any comments or questions.
