Question

philanthropy Her last philanthropy was dedicated to protecting a vast area in central Africa where many of the great apes lived. fɪˈlænθrəpi

Accepted Answer

(1) A charitable act or gift. (2) An organization that distributes or is supported by charitable contributions. With its anthro- root (see ANTHROP), philanthropy means literally “love of mankind.” Thus, philanthropy is giving money for a purpose or cause benefiting people who you don't personally know. (Animals are usually included as well.) Individuals have often set up their own permanent philanthropic organizations in the form of foundations. The greatest American philanthropists have included Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Andrew Carnegie, and John D. Rockefeller, but tens of millions of us could be considered philanthropists on a much smaller scale.
