# Barclays guide aims to help people engage their children in giving - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/06/08/barclays-guide-aims-help-people-engage-children-giving/ - Published: 2018-06-08T13:23:34+01:00 - Author: Melanie May **A new guide by Barclays has been published to help people engage their families in philanthropy.** [Future giving: Engaging the next generation](https://privatebank.barclays.com/content/dam/privatebank-barclays-com/en-gb/private-bank/documents/what-we-offer/philanthropy/IBIM7756_GD_19.pdf) has been created in response to conversations the bank has had with customers about involving their families with philanthropy, and aims to provide a framework to use to prepare for discussions on the subject. It looks at when to start and how to talk to the different age groups of 5-9 year olds, 10-16 year olds, and 17-25 year olds, with the types of activities that might engage them with giving, and links to resources that may help. It also includes case studies, and can be downloaded as a PDF. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert. You create the campaign. We'll handle the postal journey.

People aged 35 to 54 said they gave an average of £265 last year to charities, followed by £246 from under-35s, while the over 55s gave £168. * **[New fund launches to support LGBTQI activism in Asia](https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/07/10/new-fund-launches-support-lgbtqi-activism-asia/)**( 10 July 2018) * **[What can we learn from US philanthropy?](https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/10/09/can-learn-us-philanthropy/)**( 9 October 2018) * **[Achates Philanthropy Prize winners announced](https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/10/29/achates-philanthropy-prize-winners-announced/)**( 29 October 2018) ![Loading](https://fundraising.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/page-views-count/ajax-loader- 2x.gif)
