Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le bénévolat est à la fois aux confins de nos traditions et de notre civilisation ; il est le dynamisme secret, le ressort du lien social et de la convivialité. Les citoyens bénévoles interviennent sur des problèmes concrets, hors des chemins bureaucratiques. Ils suggèrent des alternatives et sont les pionniers dans des domaines aussi divers que la santé, le sport, l’éducation, l’environnement, dans des activités aussi variées que le soutien scolaire aux enfants, l’accompagnement aux mourants ou le combat contre la pauvreté... Ils retrouvent des voies nouvelles pour tisser et nouer des relations, des face-à-face d’acteurs et non de marionnettes. Les bénévoles veulent agir eux-mêmes dans un rapport de dialogue à l’État, tout en restant maîtres du jeu et des projets. Le bénévolat a quitté l’âge de la charité pour entrer dans celui de la dissidence. Quand le travail n’est plus seul porteur d’identité et d’insertion sociales, le bénévolat s’affiche et devient perturbateur. Citoyens de l’urgence, médiateurs des problèmes criants non résolus, les bénévoles n’ont pas fini de questionner la société sur son sens de la fraternité et de la solidarité.

Download or read book Federal Tax Policy and Charitable Giving written by Charles T. Clotfelter and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is distinctive among Western countries in its reliance on nonprofit institutions to perform major social functions. This reliance is rooted in American history and is fostered by federal tax provisions for charitable giving. In this study, Charles T. Clotfelter demonstrates that changes in tax policy—effected through legislation or inflation—can have a significant impact on the level and composition of giving. Clotfelter focuses on empirical analysis of the effects of tax policy on charitable giving in four major areas: individual contributions, volunteering, corporate giving, and charitable bequests. For each area, discussions of economic theory and relevant tax law precede a review of the data and methodology used in econometric studies of charitable giving. In addition, new econometric analyses are presented, as well as empirical data on the effect of taxes on foundations. While taxes are not the most important determinant of contributions, the results of the analyses presented here suggest that charitable deductions, as well as tax rates and other aspects of the tax system, are significant factors in determining the size and distribution of charitable giving. This work is a model for policy-oriented research efforts, but it also supplies a major (and very timely) addition to the evidence that must inform future proposals for tax reform.

Download or read book American Philanthropy written by Robert Hamlett Bremner and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revised and enlarged edition of his classic work, Robert H. Bremner provides a social history of American philanthropy from colonial times to the present, showing the ways in which Americans have sought to do good in such fields as religion, education, humanitarian reform, social service, war relief, and foreign aid. Three new chapters have been added that concisely cover the course of philanthropy and voluntarism in the United States over the past twenty-five years, a period in which total giving by individuals, foundations, and corporations has more than doubled in real terms and in which major revisions of tax laws have changed patterns of giving. This new edition also includes an updated chronology of important dates, and a completely revised bibliographic essay to guide readers on literature in the field. "[This] book, as Bremner points out, is not encyclopedic. It is what he intended it to be, a pleasant narrative, seasoned with humorous comments, briefly but interestingly treating its principal persons and subjects. It should serve teacher and student as a springboard for further study of individuals, institutions and movements."--Karl De Schweinitz, American Historical Review "[American Philanthropy] is the starting point for both casual readers and academic scholars. . . . a readable book, important beyond its diminutive size."--Richard Magat, Foundation News

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this project is to close the gaps in basic knowledge about the nonprofit or civil society sector, and to shed light on the reasons for the significant disparities that exist in the size, composition, financing, and role of the sector in various countries and regions. [...] The work in Canada was guided by the conceptual and methodological approaches developed in this project.1 Canada's participation in the Johns Hopkins Comparative Nonprofit Sector Project augments three other major initiatives already underway in Canada to expand our understanding of the nonprofit and voluntary sector: the National Survey of Nonprofit and Voluntary Organizations (NSNVO),2 the 2000 [...] The result is the first empirical overview of the Canadian nonprofit and voluntary sector and the first systematic comparison of the Canadian nonprofit and voluntary sector with similar sectors elsewhere in the world. [...] Page 8 Executive Summary Because of its long tradition of relying on nonprofit and voluntary organizations to address the needs and interests of its population, Canada has one of the largest and most vibrant nonprofit and voluntary sectors in the world. [...] Page 4 Definitions and Approach: An Overview The legal position of nonprofit and voluntary organizations in Canada is complicated by the country's federal structure and by the presence of two distinct legal systems-a common law system at the federal level and in most of the provinces, and a civil law system in Quebec, which was settled by the French and remains predominantly French both culturally.
