Alliance magazine

A steering group of individuals and organizations involved in providing philanthropy advice was created in late 2009 with the aim of stimulating the provision of and take-up of good philanthropy advice in the UK.

The Giving Pledge is a matter of a moral commitment to give; it will not involve pooling money or supporting a particular set of causes or organizations. The hope is that the movement will expand to other parts of the world. Analysts have already estimated that if the people on the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans all made the pledge, an additional US$600 billion could flow to the non-profit sector.
