Philanthropy provides opportunities to underfunded or urgent social
needs.
Philanthropy supports projects that may be too
unpopular or controversial to gain widespread support.
Unlike charity, which focuses on emergency support, philanthropy focuses on
ending social problems such as poverty, inquality,
or other macro-level societal problems.
Philanthropy supports a wide range of activities, from libraries,
schools, hospitals, scientific research, scholarships, civil rights
endeavors, social services, and other things beneficial to society.
Engaging in philanthropy helps teach empathy, builds emotional intelligence, and has been shown to improve mental and physical health.
The goal of philanthropy is to
promote the wellbeing of humankind by solving social problems.
