Philanthropy

The word is derived from the Greek language, meaning, "love for mankind." Modern definitions include the concept of voluntary giving by an individual or group to promote the common good and improve the quality of life.

Charity

1. charity -- a foundation created to promote the public good (not for assistance to any particular individuals)
2. charity, brotherly love -- a kindly and lenient attitude toward people
3. charity -- an activity or gift that benefits the public at large
4. Jacob's ladder, Greek valerian, charity, Polemonium caeruleum, Polemonium van-bruntiae, Polymonium caeruleum van-bruntiae -- pinnate-leaved European perennial having bright blue or white flowers
5. charity -- an institution set up to provide help to the needy

*Disclaimer: Mediaman is not a charity, nor a company that is set up in a philanthropic manner, however, we do regularly liaise and assist those in this sector, and we do enjoy a long and successful background in charity, community assistance and support.

*We can likely assist you in a limited fashion, when we see a "win-win" or genuine need. In most cases, we will require a moderate fee to cover our expenses for the work and effort required, in this most specialised of areas. As is the case in most organisations, we need to be careful where we channel our time, effort and resources. Best Regards, Greg Tingle, Director, Mediaman.
