Thinking about what Olivia Rodrigo just did, Melinda Gates’s generosity, Mackenzie Scott’s insanely generous philanthropy, Taylor Swift’s many philanthropic donations, and Dolly Parton’s lifetime of giving makes it pretty clear that women are often the ones most interested in improving the world for others.
Of course there are plenty of generous men as well (e.g. I just learned that Metallica has given millions to students attending trade schools!!!).
Still—at this moment in which greed seems to reign supreme, it’s notable that multiple women are bucking the trend.
