There is a much stronger unity and sense of belonging in a society where giving freely is common . Society is built from networks. Whether personal, religious, or business-oriented, networks are essential for success and happiness. Networking is a mutually beneficial system where people rely on each other and grow together. Networks are vital to society because governments cannot address the needs of all causes. Frequently, specific government budgets get slashed because of politics or a need to shift the money elsewhere, leaving gaps in areas where support is needed. Nonprofits and other outreach organizations help fill the gaps by supporting causes and organizations without government funding. Without philanthropy, many needs in society would go unmet.
