Editor's Notes
- Two sociology researchers wondered the same thing and decided to find out. In their book, âThe Seven Faces of Philanthropy,â Russ Alan Prince and Karen Maru File involved twelve fundraising firms in studying the characteristics of 215 charitable donors. All these individuals had discretionary income of more than a million dollars and all had made gifts of at least $50,000. They identified seven types of givers, seven âtypologies.â
- The first group they identified they call Communitarians , who give because âDoing good makes good sense.â These were 26% of giversâthe largest group. They are mostly local business owners who find that service on boards and committees of local organizations can be good for business, because it helps them develop relationships ⊠and because it helps the communities in which they do business prosper. The second group are the Devout who believe that âDoing good is Godâs will.â It was the next largest group at 21%. Nearly all their giving goes to churches and other religious organizations. The third group is the Investor 15% of those they sampled. The investor believes that âDoing good is good business.â They keep one eye on the cause, and one on tax law, and they appreciate organizations that know how to work with the tax laws to help them reach their objectives. They tend to give broadly. Most giving to community foundations comes from this group.
- The next group they called the Socialite who believe that âDoing good is fun.â This is 11% of givers. They believe that events that benefit non-profits are an attractive means of supporting them. They enjoy the social network and many of their personal network attends these same events. They tend to avoid the day-to-day operations of non-profits. Few join boards. They tend to support arts and education, and some also support faith-based non-profits. The Altruist believes that â Doing Good Feels Rightâ. These are the selfless donors who give out of generosity. Their name is on almost every major donor wall under âA:: Anonymous. They believe it is a moral imperative to give. Like the socialites, they tend not to serve on boards. They just give and go away. They are highly clustered around social causes. We tend to think that most major donors are this wayâŠbut they are only 9% of all donors.
- The Repayer is âdoing good in returnâ for something the institution has done for them. They are constituents first, and donors second. They have personally benefited from the services of an organization and feel a sense of obligation and loyalty in return. This is what hospital and rehabilitation clinics call âgrateful patients.â They are 10% of all givers. Finally, there The Dynast , to whom âDoing Good is a Family Tradition.â This is the smallest group at only 8%. They tend to have inherited wealth. Giving has always been a fact of life within their families, and they believe itâs expected of them, but each generations tends to select its own causes, different from that of their parents. While they have been a powerful force in American philanthropy, they are now only 8% of givers.
- Here are the groups again. Which groups here are likely to give to your station ⊠and why? (Discussion) (There are probably opportunities for everyone except the Devout.)
