The Donor Trust Crisis is Real

The charitable landscape is facing a ‘generosity crisis’ where the number of households giving to charity is declining. Our 2024 Donor Trust Report found that only 22% of people highly trust charities – even though most say trust is essential before giving. With more sophisticated scams on the horizon, finding trustworthy charities has never been more important.

That's why we built AskGive.
