1. Of, relating to, or dependent on charity.

E.g.:The defendants' performances are not eleemosynary. They are part of a total for which the public pays, and the fact that the price of the whole is attributed to a particular item which those present are expected to order, is not important. Herbert v. Shanley Co., 242 U.S. 591 (1917).
