Philanthropy News Digest

“Most of the [anonymous donors] we have now are 60 and above. If I were guessing at a trend, I would say it's going down in numbers. I think the younger generation of givers are much more open about what they do. They like the involvement; they like the recognition.”

— Larry E. Walton, president of the United Way of Central Maryland, commenting on a possible decline in anonymous giving. (Baltimore Sun 10/16/2000.)
