About our research and insight
We have been publishing our independent research into charities and charitable giving for over 20 years. Our work influences the
decisions of charities, companies, donors, policy-makers,
researchers and journalists worldwide. Our publications are free to read and download.
Among the trends we explore are the changing finances of
charities, patterns of individual giving, use of Gift Aid and
other tax-effective giving methods, corporate social responsibility
strategies, and trends in philanthropy. We have an extensive
list of publications covering a broad range
of topics across the charitable sector. We also publish data on
CAF's Covid-19 Emergency Grant Fund and plan to grow our data sharing.
