Growth of Philanthropy in Indian Universities and Indian American Diaspora Giving
Indian public universities historically relied on philanthropy, but today mainly depend on government grants, unlike US universities where fundraising is a professional, ongoing effort. Indian American philanthropy has grown significantly, with diaspora giving rising to $4-5 billion in 2024, supporting causes in both the US and India. This expanding philanthropy reflects cultural commitment and offers opportunities to aid India's development goals in areas like climate action and gender equity.
