The Partnership for Philanthropic Planning Presents “The Family Culture of Philanthropy”
Fort Myers, FL, May 12, 2016 --(PR.com)-- The Partnership for Philanthropic Planning (PPP) of Lee County will present “The Family Culture of Philanthropy” at the Thursday, May 26 meeting. David Lucas of the Bonita Bay Group, will be the guest speaker. The event is sponsored by The Cape Coral Community Foundation.
In 1984, after the death of his father-in-law, Lucas became Chairman of the Board of Bonita Bay Properties. In the 30 plus years since, the Bonita Bay Group developed more than 13,000 acres of land to accommodate more than 12,000 residences in seven communities throughout Southwest Florida.
Although he has given back to the community for decades, Lucas has more recently focused his attention on philanthropy, estimating he has donated "well into eight figures" for various causes including Florida Gulf Coast University and Canterbury School.
Lucas will share how he got started in philanthropy, personally and professionally, his personal philosophy on giving and his criteria for giving. He will discuss what views and practices have influenced his family’s philanthropy and how his family foundation is structured.
