The last decade was largely defined by consumption and greed. An untold story is the rise in benevolent giving seen in institutional, public, and private sectors. Such characteristics as altruism and duty are as influential as self-interest. The geography of aid has broadened; networks of NGOs now supplement philanthropy and the global operations of official channels. It has become a crucial counterpart of authorized programs; agencies that provide vital services rely on contributions to augment official doctrines. The current recession threatens these support structures, diminishing aid at this critical moment when distress is increasing. A new culture of giving that favours volunteering and action, coupled with accumulated expertise may enable imminent needs to be met
