A comprehensive introduction to the field of philanthropy,
Philanthropy and Society challenges the reader to think deeply
about the role of philanthropic institutions in shaping and
bettering the communities they serve and civil society as a whole.
While all agree that the function of philanthropic organizations is
to maximize the impact of grant making, there is little consensus
on how to do that. This book focuses on two trends that have
emerged: strategic philanthropy and increasing diversity, equity
and inclusion in philanthropy. Amidst persistent societal
inequities, the proliferation of philanthropy leaves one wondering
about the potential of this expanding industry to influence social
change as well as include constituents beyond donors and their
staff. The book offers several case studies of different types of
foundations from around the world that demonstrate several tactics
used to develop plans that are both strategic and inclusive.
Upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate students of
philanthropy, as well as professionals, will come away from this
book with a more nuanced and practical sense of the challenging
questions the field of philanthropy faces, and the different ways
they can be tackled.
