A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made our Inaugural Festival of Philanthropy a huge success. From the sponsors, attendees, speakers and honorees, it was a celebration of Arkansas's philanthropic spirit and the tremendous impact it has made on our state. We can't wait to begin planning for next year's event!
