The Hidden Crisis in Philanthropy: The Collapse of the Donor Colony

Flat or Declining Retention Rates Declining % Who Give

In 2014, the latest year for which data is available, 56% of American households made a charitable donation. In 2000, that number was 10 percentage points higher, according to the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Family.

Sources: Fundraising Effectiveness Project; The Chronicle of Philanthropy

How Is This Possible?

  • The top 1% are now

worth about $30 trillion.

  • Roughly half of all

charitable dollars in the U.S. come from the top 1%.

  • The top 0.1% are the

main players making large gifts.

treated individually according to their preferences and past behavior.”

models, AI continues to learn and grow and with each donation the model is improving itself.”

Listen to Your Children

“Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter

  • what. If you don't listen eagerly to

the little stuff when they are little, they won't tell you the big stuff when they are big, because to them all of it has always been big stuff.”
