The Philanthropists

"I feel responsible to connect in and be
a part of the solution."

"I feel that the real philanthropy
is to help the downtrodden to
earn a decent living."

"Money doesn't exist until you
do something with it."

"One cannot determine the length of one's
life but you can determine the width of it;
philanthropy widens life."

"Philanthropy is a privilege...
a very rich and fulfilling part of my life."

"I very much believe that philanthropy
is a fantastic way for members of
families to work together."

"It isn't just about money...
you need to focus on what
is going to deliver change"

"Great donors have common traits. They are agile, innovative, imaginative, humble, risk-taking and prepared to learn."

“It is an incredibly difficult job to
evaluate a single charity.”

"Through education and high expectations ... children can create for themselves the
individual life opportunities they deserve.”

“I've discovered that giving with others is
more interesting, more effective.”
