Charitable giving fell sharply last year and, for the first time this century, less than half of Americans made donations, according to the annual Giving USA report released Tuesday. The 3.4% decline — 10.5% when adjusted for inflation — marked just the fourth time in four decades that year-over-year donations fell.
Ms. Osili said charities “are going to have to navigate a more turbulent landscape” and better connect with individuals because “half of foundations are family foundations, roughly speaking.” Researchers cited a 19.4% decline in the S&P 500 index, flat disposable personal income growth and high inflation as factors in the 2022 drop. They said some S&P losses came toward the end of 2022, when “a large share” of charitable giving happens.
Ms. Gregory told The Washington Times, “It is a double whammy as donations are down and [demand for] services are up in comparison to this time last year, along with the challenge of trying to meet the food insecurity issues and there not being enough food surplus to even purchase to meet the needs.”
She said negative media attention focused on “a few bad actors” has eroded trust in charities and that some potential donors have “widespread misconceptions” about administrative and overhead costs. Such potential donors may have “unfounded fears about abuse of funds.”

Charitable giving in 2022 drops for only the fourth time in 40 years: Giving USA reportCharitable giving in the United States declined in 2022 -- only the fourth time in four decades that donations did not increase year over year -- according to the Giving USA report released Tuesday. Total giving fell 3.4% in 2022 to $499.3 billion in current dollars, a drop of 10.5% when adjusted for inflation. The downturn in giving has led to issues at Community Help in Park Slope, better known as CHiPS, as it has in many charities across the country. While CHiPS was providing 275 warm meals a day at this time last year, these days it is offering more than 400 meals. And sometimes, they simply run out of food.
