Rural philanthropy
Jan 22nd, 2008 |
Citizens of Sherburn, Minnesota (population 1,082) are proving that philanthropy isn’t just for the wealthy urban set. They are actively redefining the boundaries of who gives and how they do so.
Though the claim that “rural areas have a ‘terrific philanthropic spirit’” is questionable – they certainly prove that people are capable of redefining giving despite traditionally restrictive circumstances.
