11 By the Numbers: 501(c)3 Public Charities There are 876,000 registered and 311,000 reporting public charities in the U.S, out of more than 1.4 million registered nonprofit organizations. These agencies provide essential services from basic needs and health care to research, education and cultural engagement. If not for our public charities, many of the services they provide would need to be provided by government, which is why the U.S and many state governments incentivize donations through tax deductions.

22 By the Numbers: Nonprofit Revenue Sources Public charities report annual revenues in excess of $1 trillion. These revenues come from many sources, the largest of which are fees for service (tuition, co- pays, tickets, etc.). The second largest source of funds are contracts or grants from federal, local or state government. Philanthropy makes up only 12% of revenues – but an important 12%.

33 By the Numbers: Philanthropic Funding In 2009, total US philanthropic funding was estimated $303.75B, a reduction of just over 3% and the largest dollar decline in giving in the past 50 years – a direct result of the recession. In spite of economic challenges and reduced giving, philanthropy in the U.S. made up a total of 2.1% of the GDP. The vast majority of giving comes from individuals and families through direct gifts and bequests.
