This page provides an overview of the gaps in the current evaluation landscape, as well as geographical and interest-specific fundraising initiatives, global tax-deductibility coverage, and critical gaps in global fundraising efforts.
A thriving effective giving ecosystem consists of:
- High-impact funding opportunities (identified by Charity Evaluators and Public Funds)
- Funding for these opportunities (secured by Fundraising Organisations)
Below, the current state of each is mapped out, and gaps are highlighted.
