Learning by Giving Foundation (LxG) inspires and educates a new generation of philanthropists and community leaders to effectively distribute capital to local communities. Founded by Doris Buffett, the older sister of legendary investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett, LxG supports accredited courses on experiential philanthropy with real grant funds to distribute to high-impact, local nonprofit organizations. LxG engages young adults in a rigorous grant making process where they learn about the social and economic roles of the nonprofit sector and philanthropy, and the processes through which social change is funded and implemented across sectors. Young people develop critical leadership, professional, interpersonal, and analytical skills as they carry out an effective philanthropic strategy in their communities.
