Our species could survive for billions of years - enough time to end disease, poverty, and injustice, and to flourish in ways unimaginable today. But this vast future is at risk. With the advent of nuclear weapons, humanity entered a new age, where we face existential catastrophes - those from which we could never come back.

In The Art of Good Deeds, leaders in the world of philanthropy share personal stories and real-life experiences of the impact of good deeds—not large donations to charity or grand gestures, but simple and practical acts of kindness.

A welcome donor-recognition gift for not-for-profits, crowdfunding campaigns, and others you want to either inspire or thank—or both!
