Abstract: Abstract Corporate philanthropy in the United States was estimated at $12.7 billion in 2006, according to the most recent data collected by the Giving USA Foundation, representing 4.3 percent of total charitable gifts in the nation. Although this was a decline from 2005, when giving was inflated by funds, goods, and services for disaster relief, more detailed analyses from the Committee to Encourage Corporate Philanthropy (CECP), a forum of business leaders focused on this subject, revealed that a majority of American companies actually increased their overall financial contributions in 2006 (while a minority decreased them) and that international corporate giving rose substantially.1
