Measurement
The growth in online giving is especially notable in the last week of December, when
online giving’s advantages of convenience and immediacy are crucial. Nearly 45% of
annual giving via Network for Good’s donation processing system is during
December. Nearly half of the amount processed December 2007, which was $20M,
was donated in the last 5 days of the year.
