A philanthropist is anyone who gives anything-time, money, experience, skills, and networks-in any amount to create a betterworld.
Every day millions of ordinary people exhibit extraordinary generosity. Regardless of age, income, religion, and beliefs, we want to touch the lives of others. Yet philanthropy is often reactive-we write checks when natural disasters strike, we give to our schools and places of worship, or we support friends running a marathon for a cure. How can we transform these occasional acts of giving into consistent generosity that creates enduring impact? Moreover, how can we harness the most exciting opportunities that the 21st century offers with the power of technology, collaboration, and entrepreneurship?
With so many new ways to give, selecting the strategy and organizations that best match your own philanthropic goals can be a daunting task.
