Kate Averett Anderson

The Blackbaud Institute shares insights into 2023 trends in giving, with surprising results.

We know that 2020 and 2021 saw historic peaks in giving, with an outpouring of generosity sparked by the pandemic and social movements. The question has been: will this generosity prevail? A new spotlight from the Blackbaud Institute looks at trends across thousands of organizations to tell the story of the last five years of giving, and what set 2023 apart as a historic year! See which subsectors performed the best in overall and online giving, with insights into how to get a leg up in the current giving landscape.

As always, Blackbaud Institute resources are free and open to all. We are excited to share this first quarterly mini-report on our robust dataset, tracking billions in giving.
