Abstract
This paper presents findings from a study on intergenerational transmission of philanthropic values and behavior among wealthy Israeli donors. The main findings show that the influence of the family is considerably greater than that of the environment, and that the family shapes the philanthropic behavior of the second-third generation. Discourse among family members also has a major impact on the continuity of philanthropic activity of the offspring. The paper enhances understanding of the contribution of philanthropic education, engagement in philanthropic activity, and participation in decision-making to the process of transmitting philanthropic values from parents to offspring.
