Charities See Increase in Donations Compared to 2010

According to a new poll by The Chronicle, many charities have raised more money this year compared to funds raised in 2010. One hundred fifty-two organizations surveyed stated that the donations they received this year have increased by 20% or more from last year. Additionally, six out of ten of the charities predicted this year to end with an overall gain in donations.
