The Next Generation of American Giving

The Charitable Habits of Generation Z, Millennials, Generation X, Baby Boomers, and Matures

All generations are not created equal. Are you optimizing your outreach and fundraising opportunities to connect with each group?

Don’t miss the return of this highly anticipated report! The Next Generation of American Giving reveals multichannel preferences and charitable habits of Generation X, Generation Y, Baby Boomers, and Matures. These preferences can have a big impact on your fundraising ideas and strategies!

For example:

  • Boomers contribute 43% of all giving. Are you neglecting this lucrative generation in your efforts to woo hot-topic millennials?
  • All generations value a mix of online and offline communications and giving channels.
  • When it comes to volunteering, Gen Y talks the talk while Matures walk the walk. How do you get your younger supporters out from behind social media to actually take action?
  • Crowdfunding and peer-to-peer fundraising are gaining traction, largely with Gen X and Y.
