Gold Coast Forum presents an evening with the Former President of the Rauch Foundation, Nancy R. Douzinas, as she discusses and signs her new book, New Ways of Working Together: A Role for Philanthropy. Douzinas will be in conversation with Rep. Steve Israel and editorial editor at&nbsp;Newsday, Rita Ciolli. Gold Coast Forum is a not-for-profit organization focused on educating and informing all about the importance of books and literature by hosting vitally important authors and literary figures, providing a nonpartisan forum to discuss art, culture, history, business, and politics. Become a supporter of Gold Coast Forum <a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.goldcoastforum.org/donate" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">here!</a> Registration is required. There will be limited copies of New Ways of Working Together&nbsp;available for purchase at the event courtesy of Theodore&#39;s Books. Secure your book now by purchasing one here. ABOUT THE BOOK:&nbsp;We are in the early days of a potentially cataclysmic shift away from government financial support for non-profits. This financial collapse crosses the spectrum of programmatic areas: science, medicine, education, transportation, agriculture, the environment, arts and culture and more. Philanthropy as traditionally practiced at the institutional, family foundation, or individual level cannot close the funding gap. We are also on the cusp of the largest transfer of wealth in US history. Those in a position to give need new ways to operate in a dramatically different ecosystem. New Ways of Working Together: A Role for Philanthropy recounts how the Rauch Foundation, a privately administered family philanthropy established in the 1960s, drastically redefined its role with the goal of achieving far greater regional impact on Long Island. Their evolution meant forming organic, tri-sector alliances, where stakeholders can come together to nimbly solve community problems without the weight of formal structures. While the story centers on the challenges Long Island faced, it offers insights applicable to any region in need and specific steps philanthropic leaders can adopt. The book profiles numerous individuals whose expertise and commitment contributed to the Rauch Foundation&#39;s breakthrough successes. These profiles suggest the diversity and availability of the sort of &ldquo;outsiders&rdquo; foundations should be actively recruiting to enhance their capacity for affecting meaningful change. NANCY R. DOUZINAS started her philanthropic journey as a practicing psychologist and family therapy. Later, she became the president of the Rauch Foundation, which was founded by her father and her uncle as an expression of what was important to them. Douzinas had the opportunity to rethink and redirect the mission of the Rauch Foundation, and she strives to share what the foundation did and learned, both the missteps and the major successes, with others who face the ever-changing challenges and bear the great responsibility of running a family foundation. PLEASE NOTE: All books signed at this event must be purchased from Theodore&#39;s Books. If you purchase your copy in advance, please save your receipt.
