By reviewing corporate donation, CSR programs, and presenting the organizational and program characteristics of 52 foundations setup by corporate elites, the paper shows that corporate philanthropy in China is at an early stage of development; corporate philanthropists participate in social development mainly through donation to government and government-organized-nongovernmental organizations; and they are more enthusiastic about supporting infrastructure projects. The paper also points out that corporate philanthropists possess the power of money, which can be used to promote the professionalization of the Chinese nonprofit sector.
