Charitable giving surged to $410 billion in 2017, the highest ever, according to Giving USA 2018: The Annual Report on Philanthropy for the Year 2017. Foundation grants for the year grew to $67 billion. But can the growth sustain itself and how will future giving be impacted by the new tax law? These questions and more were discussed in the webinar, as experts analyzed what the numbers mean for foundations and offered predictions on future charitable giving.
