Description

Each year, this practical, research-based presentation unveils two major phases of research. First we analyze the past, unpacking historic giving trends among ECFA’s members and providing fresh insights on donor patterns. We also look to the future, based on a just-conducted financial outlook survey, probing issues like the current impact of inflation, debt, compensation trends, and more.

The report findings presented in this webinar can help you plan by:

• Observing short-term and long-term trends in charitable giving
• Exploring current trends in 2024 giving and the financial outlook toward 2025
• Comparing changes in giving to your organization to benchmark against ministries or churches similar to yours
• Educating staff and board members on the broader context of giving patterns and responses
