The latest study in our benchmark series on international giving examines patterns in funding trends through 2006, based on an analysis of grants made by the nation's largest foundations.
More than 72,000 U.S. foundations gave an estimated $5.4 billion to international causes in 2007, including funding for U.S.-based international programs. This record amount represents an increase of more than 70% over the estimated $3.2 billion given in 2002.
Produced in collaboration with the Council on Foundations, this insightful report provides the latest estimates of international giving by all U.S. foundations and discusses the current outlook for the field based on a 2008 survey of leading U.S. international grantmakers.
