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?

In the first half of the 21st century, giving to family and community foundations alone will be ten times in today's dollars what it was throughout the entire 20th century. Yet despite tremendous innovation in the social sector, philanthropy's natural state is under-performance. Not since Andrew Carnegie wrote The Gospel of Wealth has a book been written that provides practical guidance for donors to get the most impact from their giving.

Story2
A timely and important book that urges greater responsibility in the face of growing inequality. Inequality in Britain is growing. Does this matter? Should we be bothered that the rich give proportionately much less than the poor? And that only a small minority of the very wealthy are giving generously? Ninety per cent of NHS trusts are restricting routine operations. Youth unemployment is at record levels. Giving is Good for You demonstrates that growing inequality and poverty is a threat to everyone.

Do you want to use your wealth for good? The world is on fire with financial, social, and political challenges. Philanthropy has an important role to play, yet many donors give without lasting impact—or remain on the sidelines. In Money with Meaning: How to Create Joy and Impact Through Philanthropy, Alex Johnston empowers you to maximize your impact and your joy as a donor. Through four key concepts—Getting Visionary, Getting Real, Getting Together, and Getting Better—Alex offers a guide to “meaningful giving,” where donor satisfaction and social impact meet.

It was when traveling on assignment in India that journalist Stephen Henderson first learned of soup kitchens operated by Sikh houses of worship (or gurudwaras). After volunteering for a week at the Gurudwara Bangla Sahib in Delhi - which feeds 20,000 men, women, and children every day - Henderson became curious to research global gastrophilanthropy, or the very different ways in which hungry people are served free meals around the world.

There is a generosity crisis in North America. The number of individuals giving to charity is on the decline. For nonprofits that rely on the generosity of everyday individuals, this is an alarming statistic. But amidst these challenges, a new opportunity has arisen: the subscription economy has transformed donor behavior and preferences, making recurring giving more accessible than at any other time in history.

In How We Give Now, Lucy Bernholz shows that philanthropy is more than writing a check and claiming a tax deduction. For most of us- t he non-wealthy givers - philanthropy can be a way of living our values and fully participating in society. We give in all kinds of ways - shopping at certain businesses, canvassing for candidates, donating money, and making conscious choices with our retirement funds. We give our cash, our time, and even our data to make the world a better place.
