Wealthy Millennials and Gen Z Are Redefining Philanthropy

Gen Zers and millennials are giving away more than their parents did, according to a new study from Bank of America.

The survey of more than 1,000 donors with more than $3 million in investible assets found that younger donors under the age of 43 are more likely to volunteer, fundraise, and act as mentors for causes, while donors over the age of 44 were more than twice as likely to give due to "obligation" than younger donors, Bloomberg reports.

The younger wealthy are still building their fortunes and inheriting their wealth, so they're more likely to give their time and help fundraise.
