Companies Expect Giving to Hold Steady

The Committee Encouraging Corporate Philanthropy, in New York, based the findings on a survey of 155 companies, 69 of which were on Fortune magazine's latest list of the 100 most-profitable companies.

The median amount these corporations gave last year was slightly more than $26-million — meaning half gave more and half gave less.
