The Washington Post called the world's largest private foundation a charity today. Seriously, not a big deal in the grand scheme of things... but also a fairly simple distinction.
Interesting how the terms "foundation" and "charity" are seemingly interchangeable, when they represent two very different types of entities. I suppose the foundation community might have spurred this on a bit by referring to grant-making public charities as "public foundations."
