The leaves are changing, the air is brisk, and it's time for the Chronicle's Philanthropy 400; this year's study shows harbingers of a "shake up in the nonprofit world".
"Giving to the nation’s biggest and most popular charities grew by nearly 11 percent last year, fueled largely by affluent donors, who are reordering the top ranks of America’s nonprofits, according to The Chronicle of Philanthropy’s annual rankings of the 400 charities that collect the most from private sources. The rankings demonstrate a shake-up in the nonprofit world as groups that raise money primarily from the affluent see their donations soar." -- Holly Hall, the Chronicle of Philanthropy
