Consulting Group, the managed money unit of Smith Barney, and the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University will co-sponsor a national seminar focused on 'Contemporary Issues Facing Foundation and Endowment Executives and Trustees' on October 19, 2004. The seminar, which is open to foundation trustees, nonprofit leaders, fundraisers and interested media, will be held at the University Place Conference Center in Indianapolis.


According to Eugene R. Tempel, Executive Director of the Center on Philanthropy, 'Foundations today are compelled to make decisions of increasing complexity, due to the state of the financial markets, the growing needs of grantees, a renewed emphasis on governance and accountability, and other issues. This seminar will provide a large number of foundations with an opportunity to discuss these issues in an in-depth, constructive manner.'"
