The Wealth Report - WSJ.com : The Dead, More Generous Than the Living in 2008: "The Dead, More Generous Than the Living in 2008
“Giving while living” became a mantra of philanthropy in recent years. Now, with the living running out of cash, it is the nonliving who are back in the lead as donors.
According to Slate magazine and the Chronicle of Philanthropy, 7 of the top 10 charitable donors in 2008 were from estates. That is a big change from 2007, when all of the top 10 donors were alive when they made their gifts."
