Diaspora philanthropy, sending donations to the homeland, has evolved with worldwide migration. While scholars have explored diaspora philanthropy in diverse communities, no research focuses on migrant worker communities ineligible for permanent settlement in their host country. This study posits that donations within such communities should be considered to be a component of diaspora philanthropy. Based on a qualitative and quantitative study on the Filipino community in Israel, this research compares transnational and communal philanthropies among migrant workers. Analysis of the targets, mechanisms and amounts of donations, revealed meaningful differences. The transnational philanthropy, mostly proactive and long term, focuses on collective needs in the home country, thus fostering a better and steady future, while strengthening migrant worker links with their homeland. The communal philanthropy, mostly reactive and short term, focuses on migrant workers' immediate individual needs, contributes to their survival and enhances solidarity in the host country.

比较临时移民工人的跨国和社区侨民慈善事业：以色列菲律宾社区的案例

侨民慈善事业，向祖国发送捐款，随着全球移民的发展而发展。虽然学者们已经探索了不同社区的侨民慈善事业，但没有研究关注没有资格在东道国永久定居的移民工人社区。本研究认为，此类社区内的捐赠应被视为侨民慈善事业的一个组成部分。本研究基于对以色列菲律宾社区的定性和定量研究，比较了移民工人的跨国和社区慈善事业。分析捐赠的目标、机制和数额，发现了有意义的差异。跨国慈善事业，主要是积极主动和长期的，关注母国的集体需求，从而培育更美好、更稳定的未来，同时加强农民工与家乡的联系。社区慈善活动主要是被动的和短期的，侧重于移民工人的直接个人需求，有助于他们的生存并加强东道国的团结。
