Philanthropy is about more than giving – the outcome of the action is essential | Voluntary Sector Network | Guardian Professional

Philanthropy is about more than giving – the outcome of the action is essential | Voluntary Sector Network | Guardian Professional: The death of Steve Jobs has resulted in numerous commentaries on his apparent lack of philanthropy – both personal and corporate, through Apple. I see this as a positive step that the new norm for wealthy and successful individuals is to also be philanthropic. There is a growing trend towards asking "why not?" rather than "why?" when it comes to charitable giving.
