Inspiring Generosity in Children with John Bromley

"There is no one serving the donor."

This was the problem statement that John Bromley set out to solve when he founded Charitable Impact. He created an organization whose purpose was to work for and serve donors regardless of their cause and financial situation. John talks more about this on the "Where Parents Talk" podcast with Lianne Castelino, where he shares insights on inspiring generosity in children and his own journey of giving.

Some key takeaways from the podcast include:

The Importance of Giving: John shares that giving has always been a source of purpose and meaning in his life, even if he isn’t always consciously aware of it when in the act of giving. We can all relate to his reflections on this when considering our reasons for giving.

Modelling Generosity for Children: He discusses how his parents' example of giving shaped his own approach to philanthropy. He emphasizes that children learn generosity by observing and participating in it.

Encouraging Generous Actions: John also speaks on the importance of recognizing and praising children when they display acts of generosity, and offering constructive feedback when they miss opportunities to give.

Extending Generosity Beyond the Family: He urged listeners to extend their acts of kindness from family to the wider community, scaling up simple gestures to benefit others.

Whether you are a parent, a community leader, or simply someone who believes in the power of giving, this podcast offers valuable perspectives on fostering generosity in the next generation.
