S7E5: The City Builder | Season 7 Wrap Party (Tim Scanlan)

Holy Donors

It’s time for this season’s wrap party! Join Andrew, Matt, Thaddeus, and Rhen as they finish out this season of Holy Donors featuring Texas philanthropist Tim Scanlan. As is typical with Holy Donors’ wrap parties, our hosts share jokes and a behind the scenes look at how the group chose Tim Scanlan as one of its holy donors. Our hosts also share their takeaways from this season. Each host highlights a few of the lessons about family, faith, and philanthropy that he learned from this journey through Tim Scanlan's life. As an extra bonus, Andrew, Rhen, and Matt emphasize the important tasks of estate planning and planned giving. Though Tim Scanlan’s lack of a will at his death turned out okay because he’d made his wishes clear to his very conscientious daughters, we may not all be so lucky if we don’t specify how our wealth should be spent in the future! The Holy Donors podcast will be taking a summer break for the next few months. Plan to join us again in September when we’re back with interesting stories about another holy donor!

About Podcast

Sharing inspiring stories of radical generosity that have changed the world! Holy Donors examines Catholic philanthropists through the lens of their time in history. We ask the questions: Were they faithful? Were they humble? Were they radically generous? You will learn about some inspiring givers you had never heard of, some famous figures that you didn't know were Catholic, and even some well known Catholic figures that may or may not have been what they seemed. Were they faithful, humble, and generous? Were they holy donors? www.holydonors.com
