The demise of philanthropy is coming if we do not change course--in fewer than 50 years, we could be living in a world in which inequality has never been as stark or as dangerous. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a world fractured by crises of generosity, reciprocity, and love, what would it take to launch a return to humankind's inherent propensity toward interconnection?
