Campaign: 2014 Giving in Numbers
New CECP infographic drawn from Giving in Numbers data on corporate giving

Giving increased for 64% of companies since the end of the Great Recession, but growth has slowed in recent years. Companies continue to focus their investments: Individual grants are getting larger and corporate grantmakers are working with fewer nonprot organizations; median grant size increased by 43% from 2010 to 2013, yet median number of nonprot partnerships per grantmaker fell 21% from 2010 to 2013.

Stay tuned for more data from Giving in Numbers: 2014 Edition (cecp.co/gin), which will be released October 20, 2014. For more information on pro bono, watch for a Taproot Foundation-CECP report, Key Trends to Watch: The Next Wave of Growth in Corporate Pro Bono Service, to coincide with Pro Bono Week October 19-25 (taprootfoundation.org).
