Blackbaud Giving Fund Distributes $536 Million to Global Nonprofits

The 2025 disbursements spanned 76 countries, pushing the fund’s lifetime total beyond $3.3 billion. By leveraging corporate matching, employees effectively doubled the impact of their personal contributions, creating a critical revenue stream for nonprofits. Catherine LaCour, CEO of The Blackbaud Giving Fund, noted that these employer-backed initiatives transform individual acts of charity into a scalable force for community support.

Efficiency remains a primary driver of this growth, with a significant portion of grants processed electronically to ensure rapid delivery. To further streamline these efforts, the organization utilizes the Blackbaud Verified Network, which provides nonprofits with a platform to increase visibility among 9 million potential donors. This infrastructure allows organizations to secure funds more transparently and deploy resources where they are needed most without unnecessary delays.
