Decoding the Giving Patterns and Motivations of Affluent Americans
Presented By: Elizabeth Barnette
With the number of Americans giving to charity on the decline, many nonprofits are relying on a smaller and more affluent circle of supporters to meet their fundraising goals. The 2023 Bank of America Study of Philanthropy, the ninth in a series of biennial reports on giving by wealthy households in the United States, illuminates many expressions of generosity by affluent Americans. The series offers practical insights into distinct donor demographics including rising generation, women, LGBTQ+ and ethnically diverse donors. These insights can help build confidence and increase the success of nonprofit leaders when seeking transformational gifts from high-capacity donors.
