Would tax breaks really encourage more giving to youth charities?

Interesting piece here about the lack of donor support for youth charities, but are tax breaks really the answer?


It seems to me that describing them as "youth" organisations really don't do them justice: they're tackling employment issues, housing and homelessness, education, and so much more.


There's plenty there to engage potential donors, and although tax incentives are nice, they're not the answer.
