The More Than Money Institute (1990–2006) was founded in order to help individuals across America step back and reflect on the relationship between their economic activity and their values. In addition to hosting discussion groups, workshops, coaching and conferences, the Institute published More Than Money Magazine on a quarterly basis, starting in 1993. Each themed issue offered a range of interviews, practical tips and human interest stories meant to encourage readers to engage in purposeful, effective giving and thoughtful money managing. In particular, the magazine explored many forms of financial giving, from lending relationships and inheritance to contributions to social justice organizations, and sought to help readers reflect on how these transactions could be meaningful and life-giving.
