Philanthropy Australia has released Giving Together: The Power and Potential of Collective Giving in Australia, a landmark report offering the most comprehensive picture yet of the country's growing collective giving movement.
The research shows a sector with strong foundations and increasing momentum, demonstrating how collective giving is mobilising more funding, strengthening communities and encouraging deeper participation in philanthropy.
At the same time, the report identifies a significant opportunity. While collective giving continues to grow, it lacks the coordinated infrastructure, capacity and support needed to reach its full potential.
As more Australians embrace this inclusive, community-led approach to giving, the report calls on philanthropy to invest not only in individual giving groups, but also in the systems, coordination and enabling environment that will help the movement thrive for years to come.
