Learn More About Giving Trends and Canada’s Charitable Sector

In its fifth edition, The Giving Report 2022 highlights insights and generational giving trends facing Canada’s charitable sector which are taking place as charities are still struggling with demands and challenges from the ongoing pandemic, and now significant challenges brought about by historic inflation rates.

Leveraging the vast volume and breadth of online giving data at CanadaHelps, we’re able to paint a detailed picture about the state of online giving in Canada. In 2021, more than 968,000 Canadians gave more than $465 million to 31,700 charities. Since its start in 2000, more than 3.4 million Canadians have donated $2.1 billion to charities using CanadaHelps.

The report is produced in collaboration with Environics Analytics who provided demographic, financial, psychographic, and behavioural trends using CanadaHelps data. This report is also produced in collaboration with Imagine Canada who provided analysis and data verification of various data from Canada Revenue Agency.
