On this year’s Giving Tuesday, Leadership Weekly explores efforts to reform philanthropy with the goal of fulfilling its mission—to give in the service of promoting a more equitable society. First, we look at current legislation to reform how DAFs are used to advance the economic interests of the wealthiest, even at a time when inequality is at record levels. We also turn to another method, the “Charitable Standard,” to hold the wealthiest accountable to giving back their fair share. We then analyze whether donor-advised funds were in fact used how they were supposed to be, when put to the test during the pandemic. Lastly, we take inspiration from the important history of Black women giving back, performing acts of kindness that today’s philanthropic sector should learn from, both in theory and practice.
