High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Philanthropy is the effort or inclination to increase the well-being of humankind, as by charitable aid or donations. It is generally agreed that the word was coined 2500 years ago in ancient Greece, by the playwright Aeschylus, or whom ever else wrote Prometheus Bound.
