I am working on a story for Luxury magazine about Next
Generation Philanthropy - specifically, the services and
companies that exist to help those born-wealthy wield their
power and influence with grace and aplomb. These are people,
essentially, who help coach the children of the super wealthy
to survive, and even thrive, as someone born really, really
rich. And teach them how to wield that wealth appropriately,
including giving to charity.
Jamie Traeger-Muney, for example, is a money psychologist and
who specializes in working with "inheritors" -- children who are
going to inherit a great deal of money one day. She is one
herself; her family made $$$ via a chain of roller-skating
rinks, so she understands the strange dynamic. Now based in
Israel she conducts Skype sessions with clients. She sees
children as young as five when working with families, or young
people individually from the age of 20 - more at

Resource Generation is another operation, and it has an
interesting angle, aiming to help millennial one percenters
become better philanthropists at an early age. And 2164 focuses
on so-called Generation Impaact, aiming to help every generation
- including the young - to work together to deploy their wealth
appropriately towards causes that really matter to them, and
make an impact.
I want to hear from companies and individuals who focus on
second-, third- generation (or more) philanthropic advising - in
other words, their niche is helping those born rich with
philanthropy. Happy to feature anyone from across the world -
in fact, I'd love to find some working outside North America in
particular.
Please send me a single para pitch, including a brief bio of the
person or company you're suggesting, as well as a clear
explanation of how and why they specifically focus on
philanthropy among those already-wealthy, rather than
philanthropic advice in general.
Requirements:
Please mark the subject line: NEXT GEN PHILANTHROPY Please
reply directly to this email, rather than emailing me via other
methods. Don't call or Tweet at me (email is fine) - apologies
in advance that I can't get back to everyone, but will
definitely be in touch if I need more info. No attachments,

Query:
I am a freelance writer with Men's Health online working on a
piece about why it feels good to scratch an itch. From previous
reporting, I understand that the science of itch can be
incredibly complex, but we'd love to explain this as well as we
can for our readers. I'm seeking input from an itch researcher
by 12/22 EOD.
*Why might people's skin feel especially itchy this time of
year?
*Why does it feel good to scratch an itch?
*To zoom in, can you explain what happens in your skin when you
scratch an itch that sends a signal to your brain and why this
results in such a satisfying feeling? Are there known skin-brain
pathways/neurotransmitters, for example, that contribute to this
sensation?
*Is there anything else you'd like to add about this topic?
Requirements:
University-affiliated itch researcher (PhD/MD).
