Comparative Study of Indiana University Foundation and Peking University Education Foundation

Many theories influenced the author's thinking about the issues, such as nonprofit organizations, elite philanthropy, and civil society.

In an era of accelerated globalization, the boom of diaspora giving and growth of nonprofits set the stage for the development of philanthropy in China. While continuing to draw from the extensive experiences of its American counterparts, the Peking University Education Foundation needs to reflect on its own actual situation and explore a road tailored to Chinese-style university foundations.
