More people are Charitably Giving

Charitable Giving is consistently on the rise. Overall, charitable revenue grew 11.3% from 2010 for the three-month period ending in May. Online revenue grew 6.7% in that same period.

The two reports that measure this growth are updated on the 15th of each month and “they are based on a three-month moving average of year-to-year percent changes in charitable giving.” The report on overall revenue considers seventeen organizations that received $375 million in twelve months. The report on online revenue looks at 52 organizations who received $53 million in 12 months.
