On Tuesday of this past week, The Giving Institute and the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at Indiana University released their annual Giving USA report – an analysis of giving trends for the prior year. According to the report, contributions totaled at $333.17 billion in 2013 with 15% coming from foundations, 72% from individuals, 8% from bequests, and 5% from corporations. In aggregate, total giving in 2013 increased by 4.4% from 2012, and giving from foundations increased by 5.7%. As a percentage of GDP, charitable giving accounted for 2%. Although contributions are not quite yet back to pre-recession levels of 2007, the amount of giving in 2013 was as high as it has been since that point.
