Latest Charitable Giving Trends

Every year, millions of people across America are invited to participate in an activity that has become a tradition for generations of employees working at many of the nation’s largest employers: the Employee Charitable Giving Campaign. But these campaigns are no longer just a one-and-done annual fall event. Increasingly, employers are expanding these programs to run year-round and holding multiple campaigns throughout the year to empower employees to have an ever greater impact on the community to support the causes they care about most. 

The impact of employee giving campaigns on charitable organizations and the people and communities they serve cannot be understated. Workplace giving campaigns generate over $5 billion annually—much of which is unrestricted, sustainable support that enables charitable organizations to serve communities throughout the nation.

For the last two decades, America’s Charities, a national proponent for effective employee engagement programs, has commissioned research to identify current trends, attitudes and perceptions in employee workplace giving.
