Maximize the impact of your charitable dollars by supporting trustworthy organizations.
Derived from the Greek word “philanthropia,” philanthropy translates to “the love of humanity.” And it’s heartening to know that our love of humanity has technically been growing for decades. According to Charity Navigator, giving in the U.S. has increased in current dollars every year since 1977, with the exception of 1987, 2008 and 2009, which all marked major economic crises. As we prepare to welcome a new decade of goodwill, you may have started thinking about the organizations and causes you wish to champion.
