Philanthropy is activism.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Philanthropy is my job.
You cannot mandate philanthropy. It has to come from within, and when it does, it is deeply satisfying.
Activism has been very productive in our society.
Philanthropy and social change work are at their best when they are driven by your values and connected to what you care about most.
I have often spoken about the importance of intentionality in philanthropy: that it has to stir the soul. This is true whether you are feeding the homeless, mentoring a child or working on climate change.
I'll get involved in philanthropy.
Philanthropy is natural. For a mother, taking care of her children is natural. If I am rich, I take care of the poor, like a mother would.
Philanthropy is the thing that I am really excited about, and having success means I can do more.
There's a big difference between charity and between activism and philanthropy. They're very different things and I think, you know, everybody should find a passion or a cause that they can really get behind, but it has to be organic.
Philanthropy should be voluntary.
