Wall Street philanthropy picks up, but not for all | Reuters

Wall Street philanthropy picks up, but not for all | Reuters: "At a charity live auction in December for babies born into poverty, Stephanie Astic noted a heavy Wall Street presence in the room -- the extent of which she had not seen since 2007.

'They were bidding things up,' said Astic, who produces fundraising events for 'Room To Grow' and other non-profits at posh Manhattan venues such as Christie's and Gotham Hall.

'I thought, they're finally feeling more confident, bonus time is coming,' she said."
