Creating a Culture of Philanthropy

Effective organizations embrace a culture of philanthropy. Research shows that an organization’s culture dramatically affects its effectiveness. Groups within a larger organization may have different cultures or subcultures. Corporate culture impacts all individual, groups, and activities throughout your organization. A culture of philanthropy refers to your organization’s attitude toward philanthropy efforts and fundraising. Organizations that operate with a culture of philanthropy understand three things: the value of organizational culture, the importance of philanthropy, and the inextricable link between philanthropy and fund development. Why is a culture of philanthropy so important? Because philanthropy is not just about raising money. Philanthropy is part of the mission of the nonprofit/NGO corporation.
