Missoulian: Group: Montana near bottom of widening philanthropic gap

Missoulian: Group: Montana near bottom of widening philanthropic gap: "HELENA - The philanthropic gap has widened even further between the 10 states with the most private foundation assets and the 10 states with the least, including Montana, a Helena group said Monday.

In 1988, the average total foundation assets in each of the top 10 states was $9.26 billion, compared with an average of $63 million in Montana and the nine other states with the least foundation assets, according to the Big Sky Institute for the Advancement of Nonprofits of Helena.

That amounts to a gap of $9.2 billion."
