Instructional Video Catalog: Title Description Ridings' lecture was entitled "As the World Turns: Global Giving Goes Center Stage." The past decade has seen an incredible growth of foundations in the United States and around the world. In the U.S. alone, foundations contributed nearly $14 billion in 1996. With less government resources available, foundations and other non-governmental organizations will be called on to do more. With record stock market growth and an expected intergenerational transfer of more than $10 trillion over the next 40 years, there will be an opportunity to encourage even more giving and organized philanthropy. What are foundations and what do they contribute to our society? Ridings discusses the state of organized philanthropy in the U.S. and the growth that is taking place worldwide.
