Global Leaders of Tomorrow Task Force on Benchmarking Philanthropy

Icon_gltreport

The Task Force on Philanthropy focuses on identifying and developing best practices in charitable giving. There are currently no set of measurements or best practices which are universely adopted in assessing philanthropy in the corporate or foundation sectors

In its first phase of work, the Task Force retained a consultant who collected and synthesized the leading thought in the field. Anyone who is working in the NGO world or indeed any GLT involved in Philanthropy on a personal or professional level will be interested in this group and we are delighted to add to the team with people who can contribute with ideas, fund raising, contacts or in any other way.

Read the GLT Task Force Press Release on the benchmarking report "Philanthropy Measures Up".

Jack D. Hidary was named a Global Leader of Tomorrow of the World Economic Forum.

In 1992 the World Economic Forum developed a special community called "Global Leaders for Tomorrow" (GLTs). The community, through its programmes, aims to create and engage a global network of young business and non-business leaders, dedicated to working together in areas of social and environmental development and entrepreneurship, addressing issues beyond their immediate professional interest.
