| Summary: | Results of the Council for Financial Aid to Education's 1983 survey of 503 companies providing financial support to higher education are summarized and tabulated. Attention is directed to: national trends in corporate pretax net income and contributions; effects of inflation; corporate support in relation to total voluntary support and institutional expenditures; the distribution and types of corporate contributions; foundation cash flow by industry; changes in market value of corporate foundation assets by industry; comparative ranking of educational support by industry; total support of education in relation to worldwide pretax net income and assets; and contributions by manufacturing companies. Findings include the following: corporate giving to education in 1983 rose 3.2 percent to an estimated $1.29 million; education claimed the largest share of total corporate contributions at 43.0 percent, down slightly from 1982; total corporate contributions rose 7.1 percent in 1983 to an estimated $3 billion; gifts of company products and other property comprised 11.5 percent of reported contributions; more than half of product gifts went to education; and contributions by company foundations exceeded receipts for the fourth year, but shortfalls were adequately covered by earnings on foundations' assets.
