Giving USA Foundation
In 1985, three Association leaders, Arthur D. Raybin, John Grenzebach and Charles E. Lawson, incorporated the Giving USA Foundation, formerly the AAFRC Trust for Philanthropy, to carry out and expand a number of the public service goals of the Association.
Today the Foundation publishes Giving USA, the annual report on American philanthropy, and supports research and education. Giving Institute continues to provide financial support, expertise, and leadership to the Foundation and works in partnership with it to advance philanthropy and promote ethics in the fundraising profession.
Supporters of Giving USA Foundation™ receive recognition for their contributions, from ads within the Giving USA publication itself to recognition on the Giving USA store website.
Help fund the research that fuels philanthropy in the United States.
