The purpose of this article is to present the main findings of a research project conducted between 2019 and 2022 with the support of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). The research involved a comparative study of ten grant-giving foundations that adopted a place-based philanthropic approach. Our text is divided into three main sections. The first looks at contemporary philanthropy. The second presents the results of the meta-analysis carried out at the start of the comparative study. The third section presents the results of the comparative analysis. Before concluding with a place-based call to action, we present the questions that guided our data collection and validate or invalidate our working hypotheses.
