In its eighth edition, the India Philanthropy Report 2018 builds off the 2017 report, which highlighted what it means to give strategically by exploring how philanthropists can give more effectively to increase the impact of their giving. In-depth interviews with more than 30 philanthropists reveal four key mindsets that, if embraced, can help givers realize their full philanthropic potential.

These mindsets, embracing a “today forward” and “future back” viewpoint, acknowledging the importance of both heart and mind, thinking about inputs and outcomes, and going beyond a funding-only role to becoming an active and collaborative investor, are articulated in steps that each donor can take, along with real-life examples of philanthropists who have successfully done so.
