SPECIAL REPORT: WOMEN AND PHILANTHROPY

Magazine

Women & Philanthropy: inspiring women, inspired giving is the first contemporary report into women and philanthropy in the UK. It highlights, for the first time, the growing involvement and influence of women in major philanthropy today. This trend is significant for everyone with an interest in promoting a culture of giving in the UK, and we hope that this report spurs further research into this important area.
