More in Philanthropy
Coverage takes in large donations to hospitals and universities, donation drives run by nonprofits, benefit events and volunteer-driven fundraisers.

Small community fundraisers appear alongside million-dollar commitments, since both shape how causes get funded. Holiday giving seasons and disaster relief appeals drive much of the year's fundraising activity.
