Goodbye philanthropy, Hello generosity 🎉

Goodbye philanthropy, Hello generosity 🎉

Celebrate the generous more than the philanthropist

The battle lines have been drawn and its generosity vs philanthropy🥊 Anybody can be generous, and honoring however a person wants to give truly honors the love of humankind. Do we value generosity or philanthropy more at our organizations?

đź‘ŠPunchline: Generosity is bigger than a financial gift. Once we see beyond that which we can gift, our mission and its footprint compound exponentially. PS: money follows!
