Be part of a conversation on how philanthropy can transform wealth and purpose for a more just and sustainable future. About A New Era of Philanthropy A blueprint for how wealth can be transformed into a more just and sustainable future in times of rapid change and crisis. On the cusp of the greatest wealth transfer in history — with $84 trillion dollars moving between generations in the next 20 years — this book explores how philanthropy can be transformative, and transformed. Nationally recognized philanthropic leader Dimple Abichandani revolutionizes the precepts of modern philanthropy. Offering 10 provocative practice shifts, A New Era of Philanthropy engages readers with fresh answers to the question of how philanthropy can meet this high-stakes moment—from reimagining governance to aligning investments to crisis funding and beyond. Abichandani highlights paradigm shifts that model the way forward, moving beyond critique into real transformation, with relatable stories about funders who are forging a new era of philanthropy. A New Era of Philanthropy picks up where key books like Decolonizing Wealth and Winners Take All leave off, offering a guide for donors, foundations, and non-profit leaders navigating philanthropy in urgent times. Clear-eyed, hopeful, and responsive to the moment, this book helps us reimagine the purpose and norms of modern philanthropy. It is an invitation to all of us who believe these resources can contribute to a more just future: start here.
