Burner Charities and Big Gifters–Tracking Illicit Activity Within in the Canada to Israel Charity Pipeline
This article expands upon research surrounding transgressional charities within the Canada to Israel charitable subsector. Juxtaposed against credible accusations of anti-Muslim bias within the Canada Revenue Agency's (CRA) charitable enforcement sector, this article suggests significant financial loss to the Canadian economy (potentially exceeding $1 billion CDN) as a result of transgressional, charitable, activity within the subsector. This paper further considers the leniency with which the CRA addresses instances of transgressional activity, both from a case-by-case and endemic standpoint. Aligning with the general critiques of philanthrocapitalism, regulatory enforcement within the Canadian charitable sector appears to target frontline operations, despite ample evidence of financial complicity with many of Canada's most sizeable private foundations.

Financing Poor Relief through Charitable Collections in Dutch Towns, c. 1600-1800
In the Dutch Republic, charitable collections were regularly organized by both religious and secular authorities. This book examines the policies of church boards and town councils in organizing these charitable appeals, as well as the general population's giving behavior. Using archival sources from the towns of Delft, Utrecht, Zwolle, and 's-Hertogenbosch, Daniëlle Teeuwen shows how these authorities deployed organizational and rhetorical tactics-including creating awareness, establishing trust, and exerting pressure-to successfully promote fundraising campaigns. Not only did many relief institutions manage to collect large annual sums, but contributions came from across the socioeconomic spectrum.
