Foundation Giving

Lifting the Veil on Philanthropic Giving

May 10, 2011 | Read Time: 1 minute

The foundation world is notoriously private. So, too, are wealthy donors.

Yet their giving decisions can have huge implications for nonprofits—and can help inform the work of their fellow donors.

With this blog, we plan to report on what foundations are up to and what’s on the minds of wealthy donors. We’ll report news, like a major foundation’s decision to change its strategy or the settlement of a wealthy philanthropist’s estate. We’ll share tidbits from interviews with major philanthropists. We plan to analyze some of the latest trends in the giving world. We’ll also point readers to discussions about giving that are happening in other places on the Web.

But we want this blog to serve our readers well—so let us know what you want us to examine, and share your own stories and news in our comments section.
