A Compilation\n\nof News and Notes  \nRelated to  \nFund-Raising  \nVolume 7  \nAUG 7 '61  \nCompany contributions pactices of 282 companiesstudied by the National Industrial Conference Boardindicate that these companies gave about seven tenthsof 1%of pretax income to charitable causes in 1959.The pattern of this giving did not differ greatly fromthat indicated by a study of 180 companies in 1955.  \n# Highlights of the present study are:\n\n\"Although the dollar contributions of larger companieswere bigger,the smaller companies were more generousin their contributions in relation to their employmentand assets.  \n\"Industrial companies tended to be more generousthan service companies,but there was considerablevariation within each group.  \n\"Publicly owned companies tended to be more gener-ous than privately held companies,and local companiesmore generous than national companies.  \n\"There was noticeable geographical variation ingenerosity.”...  \n\"Comparison of the contributions reported in 1955and in 1959 indicates that education may replace healthand welfare agencies as the principal recipient of busi-ness giving....  \n\"Practically every company has its own method ofdetermining how much to give to worthy causes.Cur-rent earnings,past policy,the presence or absence of acompany-sponsored foundation,and the pressure ex-erted by customers or others who are in a position toinfluence the company all affect a business organization'sgenerosity.No single formula or yardstick for companygiving has been widely adopted....  \n\"The smaller companies surveyed were more generousthan the larger ones,relative to net income before taxes,although the latter contributed far more in dollars..·  \nY FASE DO NOT REMO/F  \ne Bul letin  \nAUGUST,1961  \n# TRENDS AND

and their faundations.A similar study af the cantributians af 180 companies was made by the Natianal IndustrialCanference Baard in 1955.Excerpts from the current study,with same camparisons with the 1955sfudies,are published here with the permission af the National Industrial Canference Board andMr.Watsan,wha is Manager af the Company Danatians Department,Division af Business Practices.)  \nQuarterly  \ncompanies...having fewer than 500 employes madegifts averaging nearly 2%of pretax income,while thosewith 5,000 or more employes gave less than 0.7%oftheir pretax income to worthy causes.  \n\"If total assets are used as the standard of companysize instead of employment,the pattern of generosity isless clear cut but essentially similar....Companies with$15 million to $200 million in assets gave 1%or moreof their pretax income as compared with .68%pretaxincome given by companies with assets of $200 millionor more.The latter group of companies was on this basisabout as generous as companies with assets of less than$15 million.\"...  \n\"A greater share of company contributions has tradi-tionally gone to health and welfare agencies than to anyother kind of worthy cause.But among the companiessurveyed in this study,education was a strong second.It commanded 39.1%of these companies'1959 con-tributions vs the 45.1%allotted to health and welfare.The 180 companies surveyed in the previous ConferenceBoard study on this subject gave 50.7%of their 1955contributions to health and welfare agencies and 31.3%to education.”  \nLarger companies tended to favor aid to educationin their contributions.Those in chemicals and relatedproducts,petroleum refining,tobacco,and transporta-tion equipment gave more to this cause than they didto health and welfare.  \nThe
