Measuring the State of Disaster Philanthropy 2020: Data to Drive Decisions

This report, a collaboration between the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and Candid, analyzes global disaster-related funding from foundations, governments, corporations, and other donors in 2019. It categorizes giving by disaster type and assistance strategy, highlighting the significant role of institutional philanthropy despite governmental aid surpassing it. Foundations can strategically fill funding gaps, supporting underfunded areas like disaster risk reduction, preparedness, and long-term recovery. The analysis aims to help donors maximize the impact of their disaster-related giving by providing insights into funding trends and imbalances.
