THE FEEL-GOOD FACTOR
A Charities Aid Foundation survey
of 700 people showed that 42% of
people who regularly donate to char-
ity cite the feel-good factor as a key
influencer in their decision-making
process.
A MORAL DUTY
A huge 96% of people responded to
say that supporting a charity helped
then strengthen their own personal
values through their moral duty to
help others.
SETTING AN EXAMPLE
Giving to charity sets an example of
generosity to the next generation,
showing children the benefits of help-
ing others and appreciating what they
have.
INSPIRING OTHERS
When we give to charity and let oth-
ers know what we are doing, either in
person or through social media, we
inspire others to be more generous as
well.
A HIGHER IMPACT
Giving to charity today has a high-
er impact than ever before, with tax
benefits for charities such as Gift Aid
meaning more money goes directly to
worthy causes.
