See the top nonprofits of 2024 supported on our platform and learn key giving trends in a time of shifts and changes.

In a year with so many nonprofits needing support, people sought out organizations they could trust and continued to show extraordinary generosity in 2024.

Benevity is proud to have played a role in the incredible impact made by our clients and their teams, serving as a trusted venue for giving to nearly 300,000 nonprofits — an 11% increase over the previous year. This growth reflects the deep commitments from companies and their people to support the issues they care about, through giving and corporate matches — a trend we expect to see continue.

Donations through the Benevity platform also grew by 8% in 2024, but the real story is the need for sustained giving. This is especially pressing in the U.S., as many nonprofits face new fears that federal policies could create funding gaps that will affect their ability to do vital work. The role that corporate and individual donors will play has never been more crucial — and sustained giving is the key.

Let's take a closer look at the top nonprofits supported by companies and their people last year, and what drove giving behavior.
