A philanthropist may not always find universal approval for his/her deeds. Common accusations include supporting an iniquitous cause (such as funding Art instead of fighting World Hunger ) or having selfish motivation at heart (such as avoiding Tax es with personal fame as side product).
In the case of the philanthropic employers (such as those that built Model Village s for their employees), it is not always clear whether they were motivated by a simple concern for their employees' well-being; or whether they simply realised that a healthy, happy workforce would be more productive.
