Celebrating Almost $600M in Generosity
September 30, 2024 | 3 min read
In 2023, The Blackbaud Giving Fund reached an impressive milestone–disbursing nearly $600 million to nonprofits worldwide. This brings the Fund’s total lifetime contributions to over $2.2 billion, all thanks to the generosity of more than half a million donors. These donations directly contribute to a wave of positive change for the world. Their support has helped over 127,000 nonprofits that address education, health, poverty, climate action, and more, making a real difference across all 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Giving is a powerful way for donors to support causes they care about. The Blackbaud Giving Fund makes it easy for donors to send donations and nonprofits to receive them. Through our work, the Fund enables thousands of nonprofits to continue the vital work they are doing in their communities and continue driving change where it’s needed most.
The nonprofit Silverstray Social recognized the importance of having a presence on giving platforms like NPOconnect. Not long after the organization completed its profile, it received a substantial donation. This ongoing contribution now provides the nonprofit a monthly financial boost so they can continue providing vital resources to animals in Gary, Indiana.
Corporate donation matches were a big part of The Blackbaud Giving Fund’s milestone. These match contributions made up approximately half of all donations disbursed through The Fund in 2023, effectively doubling or even tripling individual contributions. These corporate-led workplace-giving programs empower employees to support causes they care about while fostering a culture of giving back and community engagement in the workplace and beyond.
The Blackbaud Giving Fund is dedicated to supporting charitable giving by providing safe and efficient donation delivery. The Fund is committed to continue helping nonprofits fulfill their missions and drive meaningful change in their communities.
This incredible achievement is a true reflection of the power of collective generosity, and The Blackbaud Giving Fund is excited to continue advancing the state of giving.
