The word philanthropy comes from the Greek words meaning “love of humanity.” This important message is the heart of a new children’s book written by 2014 Boston College graduate Jessica Carbone. Philanthropy Means Love is a story about how helping others through donations, even when you don’t think you’re giving a lot, is a profound sign of love. Illustrated by Deri Joe, Philanthropy Means Love is a lyrical book that teaches kids to support the causes they care about. Carbone works in Boston College’s Office of University Advancement.
