De la contraportada

Progress. It is one of the defining expectations of the modern era. But are continued improvements to the human condition assured? What would happen if the only institutions explicitly committed to feeding, healing, sheltering, educating, enlightening and nurturing our communities went away?

In The Generosity Crisis: The Case for Radical Connection to Solve Humanity’s Greatest Challenges, the authors deliver a startling analysis of the changing nature of generosity in America and why its decline could herald the end of the modern nonp­­rofit. The demise of philanthropy is coming if we do not change course—in fewer than 50 years, we could be living in a world in which inequality has never been as stark or as dangerous.

In a world fractured by crises of generosity, reciprocity, and love, what would it take to launch a return to humankind’s inherent propensity toward interconnection? This book has the explicit goal of inspiring a different future.

The answer, argue the authors, lies in establishing radical connection—between us and the value-driven organizations that strive to improve life on Earth. They invite you to join an urgently needed conversation around generosity as an antidote to isolation and the requirement that technology be harnessed as a significant scalable solution to reversing the generosity crisis by enabling radical connection; by inviting us to take society’s most intractable problems personally.

As some of the most respected voices on corporate social responsibility, social impact, and A.I.’s place in philanthropy, Chappell, Crimmins and Ashley bring decades of experience working with the world’s most effective nonprofit and value-driven for-profit organizations—offering readers actionable insights from multiple vantage points.

The Generosity Crisis is a must-have resource for nonprofit, corporate, foundation leaders, CSR experts, board members, philanthropists, impact investors, students, and anyone who wants to understand and better the world we live in. Remarkable for the breadth and depth of its analysis, this ambitious book shows us that humanity’s best days may very well lie ahead—but only if we’re willing to rethink what it means to establish radical connection.
