Tracking Philanthropic Support for Community and Economic Development: New Research from Two Federal Reserve Banks

Keith Wardrip

Cascade, 2016, vol. 4

Abstract: How many grants do large foundations direct towards community and economic development (CED) activities? What kinds of activities are supported with these funds? Which metro areas receive the most philanthropic support and which receive the least?1 And why do some metro areas receive more than others? These are the questions that researchers at the community development departments of the Federal Reserve Banks of Philadelphia and Atlanta answer in newly completed research.
