Keeping the money isn't necessary as unphilanthropic as you seem to imply.
Wealth doesn't typically sit under the mattress doing nothing. While the person is alive, they can control how that wealth is invested, and do good that way. Giving it away while still alive would take it out of their control, and perhaps they think that keeping control will do better from a philanthropic perspective.
