☆ The National Council of Nonprofits recently shared the latest data from Giving USA on charitable giving in 2023, which shows that all four sources of giving – individuals, foundations, bequests, and corporations – remained flat or declined when adjusted for inflation. Overall charitable giving dropped 2.1% in 2023. This follows the 13.4% decline in individual giving in 2022. Not great news, but an opportunity to ask Congress to pass legislation that could make a difference. Review statements from the Charitable Giving Coalition and Congressman Moore (Utah) to learn more.
