Declining Donations


Download audio (MP3)

Contributions to the nation's biggest charities decreased dramatically last year, according to a new report by the Chronicle of Philanthropy. The 11 percent decline is the worst in 20 years, when the Chronicle first started tracking donations. Are you cutting back on charitable giving because of the economy?

Host: Michael Krasny

Guests:

  • Noelle Barton, manager of special projects for the Chronicle of Philanthropy
  • Sandra Hernandez, CEO of the San Francisco Foundation, a community foundation serving five Bay Area counties
