"The
literal meaning of ‘philanthropy’ is ‘affection for
mankind.’ Throughout our
history, we Americans have displayed this trait through our generous
charitable giving and our spirit of neighbor helping neighbor. We help
each other, and we reach out to help people all over the world. Our
tradition of voluntarism embodies a great deal of caring, initiative,
and ingenuity in solving problems and improving our communities. It is
one of our greatest strengths as a people.”
—President Ronald Reagan,
