Global Philanthropy Forum - roadmap - International Giving

Also an interesting database via this page.

Global Philanthropy Forum - roadmap - International Giving: "Global philanthropy is still a largely unexplored field.

Only 15% or less of charitable giving in the United States is international in nature, and a large portion of that giving comes from a small number of endowed foundations.

Over the past decade a new infrastructure for international giving has emerged. Public foundations now exist to serve as intermediaries between private donors and foreign recipients. These intermediaries make international grantmaking as efficient, cost effective and tax deductible as domestic funding."
