"What a LOVELY book — in style, in spirit, in words, in stories, in meaning, and in purpose. You have moved the field ahead another notch. This will be a useful resource to folks who are already doing this work, and it will also move some people to rethink what they want to do and the reasons that they are so inclined."

-- George Penick, President

Faith and Family Philanthropy addresses the timeless issues of “How faith inspires and shapes family philanthropy” and “How giving can become a spiritually fulfilling experience for a family.”  This collection of informative and thought-provoking essays provides a first-ever look into the religious traditions that guide family philanthropists today. By exploring issues such as: 

  • The traditions and values that motivate giving,

  • The reasons why family philanthropy and faith are inextricably linked,

  • How faith influences what philanthropic families set out to accomplish, and

  • How faith can help philanthropic families to focus their giving in order to make a difference.

Whether you are new to philanthropy or a seasoned giver, now is the time re-explore the relationships between your faith, your giving, and your religious traditions. 


The National Center for Family Philanthropy is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing and encouraging family giving. The National Center publishes resources for donors, families, and their advisors; conducts and commissions research on family philanthropy; and presents education programs nationwide.
