Why your charity should consider American donors
Philanthropy is part of America’s culture. In 2017 alone it was reported that US taxpayers donated a total of $410 billion to charity. And our USA Giving 2019 report found that:
- the majority of Americans believe that charities have had a positive impact on their local communities, on the USA as a whole, and internationally;
- more than six in ten (62%) Americans gave money in the last 12 months, either by donating to charity, by giving to a church/religious organisation, or by sponsoring someone;
- the median amount donated or sponsored in the last year is $100, remaining consistent since 2017.
Working with American donors, in the last five years alone, CAF America has granted more than $532 million in donor funds to more than 4,000 charitable organisations in over 110 countries.
They also receive and grant non-cash assets like stock, art, or real property. And they work with US donors to support UK charities as part of their estate and legacy giving.
