The Philanthropist Handbook: Finding Meaning in the Endowment of Humanity by Clay M. Grayson is a guide for those who wish to leave a lasting legacy through planned giving. Over the next twenty years, the Baby Boomer generation is expected to donate $12 trillion to nonprofits. With 80 percent of this giving expected to be made through their estate planning, this transfer of wealth to nonprofit organizations will transform American society in amazingly positive ways. Clay, a distinguished attorney in nonprofit law, shares his experience representing some of the largest and oldest nonprofit organizations in the United States to guide readers through the transformative power of charitable giving.

The book is divided into four parts, covering the historical role of philanthropy, the disciplines necessary for effective charitable giving, the evaluation of nonprofit organizations, and the creation of a personal philanthropic plan. Readers will find practical tools, detailed case studies, and actionable advice to maximize the impact of their giving.

By following the guidance in this handbook, you can learn to build trust-based relationships with nonprofits, understand the legal and financial aspects of charitable giving, and find your place in the continuum of human experience as a philanthropist in your own right. Ideal for donors, nonprofit professionals, and volunteers, The Philanthropist Handbook is an essential resource for anyone looking to make an enduring impact in this world. Embrace the power of charitable giving and transform your philanthropic vision into reality.
